The Coen brothers wrote and directed this quirky comedy that stars Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich and Tilda Swinton. Osborne Cox (Malkovich) loses his job at the CIA and begins to write his memoirs. His wife (Swinton) is having an affair with a US marshal named Harry Pfarrer (Clooney). But Harry gets a date with Linda Litzke (McDormand), a fitness center employee seeking money for cosmetic surgery. She and coworker Chad Feldheimer (Pitt) obtain Cox's memoirs, mistake them for secrets and try to sell them to the Russians.
