Harry also has a taste for trolling the Internet for dates. That’s how he meets a gym worker named Linda Litzke, who needs money for some cosmetic surgical procedures.

Trivia
The film “Coming Up Daisy” was titled “Tell Me That Again!” in the script. The word “fuck” is uttered 60 times. Including 6 times in the first two minutes. The sound emitted by the homing scanner from Bowman’s space pod in 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) is heard in the opening titles. Harry Pfarrer’s house number is 114, a nod to Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). The Coen Brothers wrote the character Osborne Cox with John Malkovich in mind. Brad Pitt’s character was also written with the actor in mind, inspired by a commercial for which he suffered a similar haircut and dye job. read more……Movie Error

Sussex, UK (PRWEB) September 27, 2008 — Hollywood’s newest Blockbuster “Burn After Reading” hits cinemas across the globe this autumn, and is the latest film to feature music from World Music specialists ARC Music.
Described as “a tightly wound, slickly plotted spy comedy…” by the Guardian, Burn After Reading stars such Hollywood heavyweights as Brad Pitt, George Clooney and John Malkovich and is directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, the team behind the films ‘The Big Lebowski’, ‘O Brother, Where Art Thou’ and the multi-Oscar-winning ‘No Country for Old Men’.
Movie Review
Though ‘Burn After Reading‘ is as much a nightmare as it is a comedy. The movie has a gripping storyline, that will keep your interest straight through out the movie. The movie definitely has a different storyline and concept. Above all I guess the main positive point about the movie is its actors. Character actors who have done impeccable performances in their roles, I mean beside others, we were not expecting Brad Pitt, in a role like this. But then there are no doubts that he has done a good job. The movie also has good comedy and some very good action sequences. Overall, it is a good movie and I think everyone should watch it, at least once.
One of the best dark comedies I have seen after ‘Arizona‘. A very gripping story and superb performances by Brad Pitt and John Malkovich. It is a typical Coen brothers movie. I enjoyed the movie, but I have a suggestion, all those who don’t like dark comedies and linear plot should not go for this one. read more…..

‘Burn After Reading’: Mixed Nuts, By Kurt Loder - Movie News Story …
12 September 2008: Because the Coen brothers’ most formidable competition is with themselves, their new movie, “Burn After Reading,” can’t really compete with the best of their earlier films. Unlike such poleaxed classics as “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” and “Raising Arizona” and (especially) “Fargo,” the new film feels like an intellectual exercise — a sort of screwball-comedy genre dissertation.
Still, it is a Coen brothers film — written, directed and edited-by, as usual — and so it’s filled with mad dialogue and wonderfully strange performances. The story is all quirks and comic tremors. It begins at CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, where Osborne Cox (John Malkovich), an intelligence analyst with a second career in being perpetually pissed off, is getting the boot because of his drinking problem. Since he doesn’t drink all that much (never at breakfast, for example),
‘Burn After Reading’ Fires Up Weekend Box Office - Movie News …
15 September 2008:
The Box-Office Top Five
#1 “Burn After Reading” ($19.4 million)
#2 “Tyler Perry’s The Family That Preys” ($18 million)
#3 “Righteous Kill” ($16.5 million)
#4 “The Women” ($10.1 million)
#5 “The House Bunny” ($4.3 million)
It’s been a long time since something other than a superhero or action adventure flick has led the weekend box office. Either we’ve entered the fall movie season, or the Large Hadron Collider sucked us all through a black hole and into a parallel dimension. How else to explain the success of the Coen brothers’ latest, “Burn After Reading,” which (get this, friendo) is the #1 film for the weekend?
