THE COENS ARE BACK! 'BURN AFTER READING' TRAILER

While I dug last years Oscar-winning "No Country For Old Men," I feel that it lacked what I call "The Coen touch." In practically all of their films, I've felt that almost every scene was painterly. It had a look, a feel, a mood. "No Country..." lacked that aesthetic. It also lacked their trademark quirky characters. It looks like here that they're back in fine form. Kudos! Very Lebowski-esque.

Here's the official plot synopsis: John Malkovich plays Ozzie Cox, a CIA vet who is fired because he is an alcoholic. He takes his revenge by writing some inflammatory memoirs. Cox's soon-to-be ex-wife Katie (Tilda Swinton) steals the disc containing his memoirs and accidentally leaves it at the gym where it is found by a trainer Chad Feldheimer (Brad Pitt) and the gym's owner Linda Litzke (Frances McDormand) who believe they can use the info to blackmail Cox.

Harry Pfarrer (George Clooney) is an oversexed, fanatically fit, lactose-intolerant federal marshall, who is sleeping with Cox's wife. He meets Linda via an online dating service and gets entangled in the blackmail scheme, when he stumbles across Chad breaking into his and Katie's house.
