Barton Fink.

Because I think in some ways it's their most personal film, and therefore the most effective.

I think Lebowski is the most purely enjoyable, Barton Fink their most perfectly realized, and The Man Who Wasn't There the most interesting.

So I think it's rather obvious my favorite is Miller's Crossing.

Barton Fink, for having the best mid-way point of any film I've ever seen (when he wakes up and slaps the mosquito, etc). I had to stop the movie at that point, rewind it, and watch it again.

Miller's Crossing is my second favorite, because Tom Reagan is the greatest fucking film character EVER.

"Raising Arizona"--simply their most enjoyable movie.

Honorable Mentions: Fargo, Blood Simple
