The Coenfographic

Body

Another film-related post today: Belgian designer Tom Muller created this visualization of the most prominent actors across all of the films of Joel and Ethan Coen, showing where they’ve recurred.

Slight, but nicely done. See the graphic in its enormous entirety here.

Argh. That’s one of those infuriating & meaningless “not really an infographic” graphic. I get the whimsy of it, but shouldn’t it be more like a Mark Lombardi drawing or even the new LinkedIn network maps?

Nice calendar of posts, by the way. Is that new?

Peter: I know what you mean about basically meaningless infographics. I’m generally not a fan but I found this one to be fun. Maybe because I’m such a fan of the Coen Brothers’ work.

The calendar page you mentioned is not new at all! It’s been a part of the site for years, but of course no one really visits the archives section.

Ah, makes sense (archives section I mean). It brought to mind that if Teuxdeux ever created a “month view”, that approach would make a lot of sense.
