In the Coen brothers films there are many overlapping techniques. For example The Big Labowski shares the theme of money with many of the Coen brother's other films. this is a theme in the film Fargo where the character jerry is driven mad by his desire for money. Also in the film No Country For Old Men Llewelyn is eventually killed because he couldn't give up the money that he found in the desert. Another common trait are the depictions of America. In Fargo the over exaggerated accents make the viewer think of the common misconceptions of Minnesotans. The Big Labowski give you the feeling of the "hippie stoner Californian."
Another trait that Coen brother films share is the use of camera movement. All of their films use alot of tracking shots. Also several of their films use "Raimi Cams" or speed ramps in which the camera rushes in on the object or person being viewed to give a dramatic effect. The Coen brothers also like to use a wide angle lens in many of their film. The use of strange camera angles is also common in their films. these angles often hide something important from the viewer that is eventually revealed.
