The Coen Brothers were launched into the spotlight with this tender-hearted and hilarious film about an ex-con (Nicolas Cage) and ex-cop (Holly Hunter) couple desperate for a child. Decades on, its good nature and comedy still hold up and then some. This film is rated PG-13.

A trailer for the film can be found here.
