Fargo
Dir. Joel Coen & Ethan Coen (1996, IMDb #171)
Get out your Beige bingo cards ladies and gents, this film has a little bit of most everything.
From Native American actors (Steve Reevis as Shep Proudfoot), to Black actors (Sharon Anderson as Morning Show Hostess; Davis S. Lomax as Man in Hallyway), East Asian actors (Steve Park as Mike Yanagita) and twenty-second cameos from bona fide Latin American pop stars (José Feliciano as José Feliciano).
Great work, Alan (The Beige Index Intern)! Oh man, you should see Alan’s face when he begs us for a raise from his current base pay of $0.00. Classic.
