Written by on

OH GEEZ!… Shout! Studios proudly presents the seven-time Oscar® nominated crime thriller, FARGO [Collector’s Edition] on 4K UHD + BLU-RAYTM  on November 7, 2023. The beloved, twistedly dark comedy will become available on 4K UHD for the first time ever, bringing fans of the cult classic a brand-new way to enjoy the film when they pre-order their copy on the Shout! store.

Written and directed by Joel and Ethan Cohen (No Country for Old Men, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, The Big Lebowski), this crime thriller features an all-star cast including Frances McDormand, William H. Macy, Steve Buscemi, Peter Stormare and more.

In this seven-time Oscar®-nominated film*, things go terribly awry when small-time Minnesota car salesman Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) hires two thugs (Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare) to kidnap his wife so he can collect the ransom from his wealthy father-in-law. Once people start dying, the very chipper and very pregnant Police Chief Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand) takes the case. Is she up for this challenge? You betcha.
