Inside Llewyn Davis ****


In the winter of 1961, mired in the time before Dylan, aspiring folk singer Llewyn Davis deals with the times, the scene, and the fraying strands of his life in New York. It's a a fascinating, involving, if not uplifting look at a slice of popular American culture and a man caught up in it. Oscar Isaac provides an amazing performance as Davis. And the writer/directors Coen brothers have given us another intricate and well-crafted work that is well worth your time.
