Another film by the famous Coen brothers, each subsequent film of which receives several awards from the most prestigious festivals. In the case of "Inside Llewyn Davis", the directors received the Grand Prix of the international Cannes Film Festival in 2013. The character himself, played by Oscar Isaac, is not a prototype of a real character, as it might seem at first glance, based on the plot. This is quite a typical story for the Cohens, which is constantly on the edge of reality and there is no everyday surrealism. Acting as screenwriters, as they do, the directors were inspired to work on "Inside Llewyn Davis" by the publication of David Van Ronko. The main part of the filming, according to the character's travel history, was carried out in New York, which was stylized to the 60s with the help of artists. The starting points for some events of the tape were clubs, cafes and personalities that really existed. For example, Gerde's Folk City club was involved in this way. The cast is "supported" by John Goodman, who, as always happens with him in Cohen's films, played a secondary character.
