Marshal with paranoid tendencies. At the instruction of her lawyer, Katie copies and delivers her husband's digital fiscal records and other files, unknowingly including the draft of Ozzie'southward memoir. The lawyer's assistant copies the files onto a CD, which she accidentally leaves on the locker room floor of Hardbodies, a local gym. The disc falls into the hands of personal trainer Chad Feldheimer and his coworker Linda Litzke, who mistakenly believe it to contain sensitive government information.

Republic of chad devises a plan to return the disc to Osbourne Cox for a cash advantage, with Linda eager to raise money for cosmetic surgery that she cannot afford. After a phone call and unsuccessful meeting provoke Cox, Chad and Linda try to sell the disc to the Russian embassy, meeting with an official who is actually a spy for the CIA.

Osbourne's erratic beliefs prompts Katie to change the locks on their firm and to invite Harry to move in. Harry is a womanizer and routinely dates and sleeps with women whom he has met online; he coincidentally starts seeing Linda after meeting her on a dating site.

Having promised the Russians more files, Linda persuades Republic of chad to sneak into the Cox house to steal files from Osbourne's estimator, just this attempt ends in Chad's discovery past Harry, who shoots him in the caput, killing him instantly. Harry searches the body for any clues to Chad's identity, only only finds an empty wallet and missing accommodate tags; he surmises that Chad was a "spook".

At CIA headquarters, Osbourne's sometime superior and a director learn that data from Osbourne has been given to the Russian embassy, and are perplexed because the information is of no importance and the perpetrators' motive is unknown. A spy assigned to picket Cox'due south business firm tailed Harry and observed him dumping Republic of chad'due south body into Chesapeake Bay; unaware of Chad's identity, the director orders Chad's death to exist covered up.

Later on finding the cars post-obit him to be driven by a divorce lawyer hired by his wife, a depressed Harry meets with Linda, and afterward hearing her distress at her friend Chad going missing, Harry agrees to aid discover him, unaware that Chad is the man whom he had shot and killed.

Linda returns to the embassy, believing that the Russians take abducted Republic of chad, but they deny that they have him.

Production [edit]

Background and writing [edit]

Working Title Films produced the film for Focus Features, which as well has worldwide distribution rights.[nine]

Burn down After Reading was the first Coen brothers film not to utilise Roger Deakins as cinematographer since Miller's Crossing. Emmanuel Lubezki, four-fourth dimension University Award-nominated cinematographer of Sleepy Hollow and Children of Men, took over for Deakins,[10] who had already committed to shooting Sam Mendes' Revolutionary Road.[eleven] Mary Zophres served equally costume designer, marking her 8th consecutive movie with the Coen brothers.[9] Carter Burwell, a composer who worked with the Coens in xi previous films, created the score. Early in the product, Burwell and the Coens decided that the score should be emphatically percussive to match the deluded self-importance of the characters, and they noted the all-drum score for the political thriller 7 Days in May. Joel Coen wanted the score to be "large and bombastic,... important sounding but absolutely meaningless."[12] Burwell wrote that a percussive score would help "avoid any emotional comment" and "would lend an air of sobriety, gravity, and bombast to the general silliness". The Fire score ultimately made frequent use of Japanese Taiko drums.[13]

Burn down After Reading was the commencement original screenplay penned by Joel and Ethan Coen since their 2001 film, The Man Who Wasn't There.[14] Ethan Coen compared Burn After Reading to the Allen Drury political novel Propose and Consent and called it "our version of a Tony Scott/Jason Bourne kind of picture show, without the explosions."[15] Joel Coen said that they intended to create a spy moving picture because "we hadn't washed 1 before",[16] but feels that the last result was more than of a grapheme-driven movie than a spy story. Joel as well said that Fire After Reading was not meant to be a comment or satire on Washington.[12]

Parts of the Fire screenplay were written while the Coens were too writing their adaptation of No Country for Former Men.[12] The Coens created characters with actors George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich and Richard Jenkins in heed for the parts, and the script derived from the brothers' want to include them in a "fun story."[17] Ethan Coen said that Pitt'due south character was partially inspired by a botched pilus-coloring job from a commercial that Pitt had made.[18] Tilda Swinton, who was cast later than were the other actors, was the but major actor whose character was not written specifically for her. The Coens struggled to develop a common filming schedule to accommodate the A-list cast.[19]

Production Weekly, an online amusement-manufacture magazine, falsely reported in October 2006 that Burn down After Reading was a loose adaptation of Burn Earlier Reading: Presidents, CIA Directors, and Underground Intelligence, a memoir by former U.S. Director of Cardinal Intelligence Stansfield Turner.[20] The Coen brothers script had nothing to practice with the Turner book; nonetheless, the rumor was non clarified until a Los Angeles Times commodity more than 1 twelvemonth after.[17]

Filming [edit]

Master photography took place around Brooklyn Heights, as the Coens wanted to stay in New York City to be with their families.[21] Other scenes were filmed in Paramus, New Jersey, Westchester County, New York and Washington, D.C., specially in the Georgetown neighborhood.[v] Filming began on August 27, 2007, and was completed on Oct 30, 2007.[five] John Malkovich, actualization in his first Coen brothers picture show, said of the shooting, "The Coens are very delightful: smart, funny, very specific about what they want merely not overly controlling, equally some people tin be."[22]

Festival run and press tour [edit]

The film opened the Venice Film Festival in Baronial 2008.[23]

The Coen brothers said idiocy was a major central theme of Burn After Reading; Joel said he and his brother have "a long history of writing parts for idiotic characters"[23] and described Clooney and Pitt's characters equally "dueling idiots."[xviii] Fire Later Reading is the third of four Coen brothers films with Clooney (O Brother, Where Fine art Grand?, Intolerable Cruelty and, subsequently, Hail, Caesar!), who acknowledged that he usually plays a fool in their movies: "I've done 3 films with them and they call it my trilogy of idiots."[23] Joel said afterward the final scene was shot, "George said: 'OK, I've played my last idiot!' So I gauge he won't be working with us again."[24]

Pitt, who plays a particularly unintelligent character, said of his part, "Afterwards reading the function, which they said was paw-written for myself, I was non sure if I should be flattered or insulted."[23] Pitt also said when he was shown the script, he told the Coens he did not know how to play the part considering the character was such an idiot: "There was a pause, and and so Joel goes...'Yous'll be fine'."[25]

During a fall movie preview, Amusement Weekly wrote that Malkovich "hands racks up the most laughs"[26] among the cast equally the foul-mouthed and brusk-tempered ex-CIA man. The starting time scene Malkovich performed was a phone call in which he shouts several obscenities at Pitt and McDormand. But Malkovich could not be on the sound stage for the call because he was rehearsing a play, so he called in the lines from his apartment in Paris. Regarding the scene, Malkovich said, "It was really late at night and I was screaming at the peak of my lungs. God knows what the neighbors thought."[26] Swinton plays Malkovich'south wife who engages in an matter with Clooney, although the two characters do not become forth well. Clooney'south and Swinton's characters also had a poor human relationship in their previous film together, Michael Clayton, prompting Clooney to say to Swinton at the end of a shoot, "Well, perhaps ane day we'll get to make a film together when we say one dainty thing to each other."[26] Swinton said of the dynamic, "I'grand very happy to shout at him on screen. It'southward great fun."[5]

Swinton described Burn After Reading as "a kind of monster caper picture show"[24] and said of the characters, "All of us are monsters – like, true monsters. It's ridiculous."[24] She also said, "I retrieve there is something random at the heart of this ane. On the i paw, it actually is bleak and scary. On the other, it is really funny. ... Information technology's the whatsoever-ness of it. Y'all feel that at whatever minute of any day in any town, this could happen."[15] Malkovich said of the characters, "No one in this film is very good. They're either slightly emotional or mentally defective. Quirky, self-aggrandizing, scheming."[22] Pitt said the bandage did lilliputian advertizing-libbing because the script was then tightly written and wove so many overlapping stories together.[16] Veteran actor Richard Jenkins said the Coen brothers asked him if he could lose weight for his role equally the gym manager, to which Jenkins jokingly replied, "I'm a sixty-twelvemonth-old human, not Brad Pitt. My torso isn't going to alter."[27]

Joel Coen said the sex motorcar congenital by Clooney'southward character was inspired by a car he once saw a key grip build, and by another machine he saw in the Museum of Sexual practice in New York City.[12]

Release [edit]

Box role [edit]

In its opening weekend, the film grossed $19,128,001 in ii,651 theaters in the United States and Canada, ranking number one at the box office.[28] As of July 2009, information technology has grossed $60,355,347 in the United States and Canada and $103,364,722 overseas adding up to $163,720,069 worldwide gross.[2]

Critical reception [edit]

Reviews for the film were mostly positive. It earned a 78% approval rating at Rotten Tomatoes, based on 250 reviews, and an average rating of 6.90/10. The website'southward critical consensus states, "With Burn Afterward Reading, the Coen Brothers have crafted another clever one-act/thriller with an outlandish plot and memorable characters."[29] Information technology also holds a 63/100 weighted average rating on Metacritic, based on 37 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[30]

The Times, which gave the motion-picture show 4 out of 5 stars, compared information technology to and so Coen films Raising Arizona and Fargo in its "savagely comic taste for creative violence and a slightly mocking eye for detail."[14] The review said that the attention to detail was so impeccable that "the Coens can even heighten a laugh with something as elementary as a well-placed photograph of Vladimir Putin",[14] and complimented Carter Burwell's musical score, which information technology described as "the well-nigh paranoid slice of picture show music since Quincy Jones'southward neurotic soundtrack for The Anderson Tapes."[fourteen]

Andrew Pulver, film reviewer for The Guardian, awarded the picture show four out of five stars, calling it "a tightly wound, slickly plotted spy comedy that couldn't exist in bigger contrast to the Coens' last film, the bloodsoaked, brooding No Country for Onetime Men."[31] Pulver said that the film "may too go down as arguably the Coens' happiest appointment with the demands of the Hollywood A-list."[31]

The Hollywood Reporter reviewer Kirk Honeycutt complimented the actors for making fun of their screen personae, and said that the Coen brothers "... take taken some of cinema'due south height and most expensive actors and chucked them into Looney Tunes roles in a thriller."[32] Honeycutt besides said "it takes awhile to conform to the rhythms and subversive humor of Fire because this is really an anti-spy thriller in which nil is at stake, no one acts with intelligence and everything ends badly."[32]

Todd McCarthy of Variety magazine wrote a strongly negative review, saying that the motion picture "tries to mate sex farce with a satire of a paranoid political thriller, with arch and ungainly results."[33] McCarthy said the talented cast was forced to act like cartoon characters, described Carter Burwell's score as "uncustomarily overbearing"[33] and said the dialogue is "dialed up to an almost grotesquely exaggerated extent, making for a moving picture that feels misjudged from the opening scene and thereafter only occasionally hits the right annotation."

Fourth dimension film critic Richard Corliss wrote that he did not understand what the Coen brothers were attempting with the motion-picture show: "I have the sinking feeling I've made Burn After Reading sound funnier than it is. The movie'southward glacial affectlessness, its remove from all these subpar schemers, left me cold and perplexed."[34]

David Denby of The New Yorker said that the picture show had several funny scenes, simply that they "are stifled by a farce plot so bleak and unfunny that it freezes your responses after about forty-five minutes."[35] Denby criticized the film's pattern of violence in which innocent people die quickly and the guilty get unpunished. "These people don't mean much to [the Coen brothers]; information technology's hardly a surprise that they don't mean much to us, either. ... Even blackness comedy requires that the filmmakers love someone, and the mock cruelties in Burn Subsequently Reading come off every bit a case of terminal misanthropy."[35]

Leah Rozen of People magazine said that the characters' "unrelenting dumbness and dim-witted behavior is at starting time amusing and enjoyable but eventually grows wearing."[36] But Rozen said that the performances are a redeeming factor, especially that of Pitt, whom she described as a standout who "manages simultaneously to be delightfully broad and smartly nuanced."[36]

Le Monde noticed the film's "peculiarly bitter image of the U.S. The alliance of political incompetence (the CIA), the cult of advent (the gym club) and vulgar stupidity (everyone) is the target of a settling of scores" where the comedy "sprouts from a well of bitterness."[37]

Almost a decade later, The New Republic senior editor Jeet Heer argued that the film was "singularly prophetic of the [Donald] Trump era" anticipating "the Trump campaign'south collusion with Russian operatives" and "the wider culture of deceit that made Donald Trump'due south ascension possible. More than just a satire on espionage, the motion-picture show is scathing critique of modern America every bit a superficial, postal service-political society where cheating of all sorts comes all too easily....The about disturbing matter nigh Burn After Reading, though, is how it resembles every day in Trump'southward Washington, where the line betwixt blundering idiocy and malevolent conspiracy is increasingly blurred."[38]

The National Board of Review named Burn After Reading in its list of the Meridian 10 Movies of 2008. Noel Murray of The A.V. Lodge named it the second-all-time picture of 2008,[39] Empire magazine named information technology the third-best movie of 2008,[39] and Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly named it the seventh-best film of 2008.[39]
