And a continuing stalemate would leave Obama facing either the possibility of an Israeli air strike on Iran's nuclear facilities or being forced into escalating U.S. pressure until Tehran cries uncle. Both options could greatly destabilize the Middle East...
...making of this motion picture." That statement is open to dispute, since most of the film's characters are Jewish - residents of suburban Minneapolis in 1967 - and just about all of them, it seems, are out to harm the Coens' hapless hero, college physics professor Larry Gopnik (Michael Stuhlberg), either intentionally or just by ignoring his mostly mute cries for help...
