Burn After Reading stars George Clooney and Brad Pitt

Following their Oscar-winning No Country for Old Men, Joel and Ethan Coen prove why they’re currently the directors du jour in Hollywood, with this A-list farce about a stolen CIA memoir. From Pitt’s quiff-sporting gym bunny and Coen regulars Clooney and Frances McDormand, to an ice-cold Tilda Swinton, there’s not a weak link in this dream cast. Flawlessly executed, it’s the brothers’ best comedy since The Big Lebowski.
