Famed filmmaker Ethan Coen, known for his collaboration with his brother Joel, strays from their usual works to direct a lesbian road trip comedy called Drive-Away Dolls, a departure from their typical oeuvre and a venture into more sexually liberated territory.

Joel Coen's adaptation of Macbeth is described as a departure from the Coen brothers' previous films, exhibiting a serious and dark tone.

The Coen Brothers, acclaimed filmmakers, are often seen as exploring various genres in their movies, but a closer look reveals that they are actually expressing a distinct Jewish sensibility, particularly that of midwestern Hebrews.
