Joel Coen

Joel Coen was born on November 29, 1954 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA. He is a American movie director, writer and producer.

He found work as an assistant editor working on several low budget horror films, including Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead, and began doing a bit of writing with his younger brother, Ethan.

Released in 1984, the two made waves with the low-budget film, a taut bit of film noir that wowed its audiences. Besides landing some of the top ten lists including Time Magazine, The Washington Post and USA Today, Blood Simple.

In 1991, Joel was named Best Director at the Cannes Film Festival for Barton Fink. The film also garnered the Palme D'Or Award for Best Picture, two New York Film Critics Circle Awards, three Oscar nominations, and one Golden Globe nomination.

He also directed O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000), starring George Clooney and John Turturro, followed by The Man Who Wasn't There (2002) starring Billy Bob Thornton and Intolerable Cruelty (2002), starring Clooney again alongside Catherine Zeta-Jones.
