abd retries shown throughout the film.

I felt this was basically just that famous overused philosophy of try and try again. Even though these people are complete and utter failures, they don't give up. They continue to try doing something until they finally get it done, and that is generally their only strength. People that are that prone to failure HAVE TO TRY AGIN or they will never be able to do anything in life (whether it's raising a family, or robbing a convenience store). Had everyone been able to succeed at something on the first try or giving up after failing on the first try, the movie would not have been as enjoyable to watch, and isn't that what's important?

I think that Nathan Sr. walking in on Hi and his wife returning the baby helped to tie the film to a conclusion. It also helped give the viewer the impression that the two might be able to rethink their ideas of seperation. This scene also gives the couple the oppurtunity to explain their reasons for kidnapping the baby and exhibits to the viewer that the couple is hopefully headed back on the right path.

Maybe not between Leonard and Nathan Jr as much as Leonard and Cage. This may seem obvious t

I think that the extreme shots were effective in portraying the differences of perception of the baby and the adults. The baby scene where H.I. is juggling all of the babies is a clear example of some of the distinguishing tactics between the babies perception and the adults. H.I. is viewed in many point-of-view shots of the baby. When the baby is on thge floor the camera glances upward to HI. This shows the power of HI and his ability to move the babies wherever he sees fit. When the baby is at the top of the stairs the downward shot of the stairs, suggests the power of the baby. THe baby is in control of his movements until HI deeps him from ascending down the stairs. Throughout this whole scene there is a sense of uncontrolability. The babies are everywhere, getting in to everything, and HI, although he is the adult is not in control of the situation most of the time. He allows all of the babies to get out of their bed and roam around the room. I thought that all of the sho!

I for one feel that if there were any meaning or "moral" to the repeated images, then it would be the fact that people don't always learn from their mistakes. Because of this, they never really seem to get anywhere except deeper and deeper in their problems. These images could also be a sign of failure. Who knows, maybe they were just meant to be humorous.

Holly Hunter and Nicholas Cage co-star as a childless couple who really really want a baby in this wildly original comedy from the Coen Brothers.

A few other thoughts - I was wondering if the kidnapping itself was patterned after the Lindbergh baby case. The circumstances are similar, and the Coen brothers do have a twisted sense of humor.

I think it was important for Nathan, Sr. to catch HI and Ed returning Nathan, Jr. to his crib. It gives HI and Ed a chance to explain to Nathan, Sr. and themselves why they took the baby and why they brought him back. It also gives Ed and HI a chance to rethink their relationship and their future together. If they had not returned the baby, HI would stil
