I loved hearing how George Clooney expected to actually sing this song for the soundtrack. (He is related to Rosemary Clooney.) They let him record a bit in the studio, then played it back for him. He walked out with his head hanging.
Even if George Clooney did walk out of the recording studio with his head hanging, his acting in ‘Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?’ was incredible. I love the film due to the bizarre progressive beauty, and ‘A man of Constant Sorrow’ is a fantastic song. When I am traveling frequently on business for Dish, I find myself watching more movies, than when I’m home. It’s my passion for film that pushes me to subscribe to Blockbuster @Home, so I can receive my movies by mail prior to my trip. I’m in a majority of fans, who love George Clooney, but I’ve not seen ‘Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?’ in a long time. Tonight my hotel will be filled with constant laughter.

ReplyDeleteThat's a cool story; hadn't heard it before. You always think you sound better than you do... (karaoke night, anyone?:-)
ReplyDeleteClooney did one heck of a job on that character, though. The bad singing doesn't matter to anyone but him, I imagine.
One of my favorites too. The Coen Brothers have given us a lot of great films.
ReplyDeleteI'm a great Coen Bros fan :-)
