The Ethics of the Ethics: Identity and Loyalty in Miller's Crossing

The Coen Brothers utilize a dense, rhythmic "hard-boiled" dialogue that feels both authentic and surreal. The film subverts noir tropes by making its hero's greatest weapon his ability to take a beating rather than his ability to give one. By the end, Tom has restored order, but at the cost of every personal relationship he had. He remains the smartest man in the room, but he is also the loneliest. subtitle Millers.Crossing.1990.1080p.BluRay.x26...

The titular "Miller’s Crossing" is a physical location in the woods, but it functions as a moral crossroads. It is where executions take place and where characters are forced to reveal their true natures. When Tom is tasked with killing Bernie Bernbaum ( John Turturro ), the forest becomes a stage for a desperate plea for "look into your heart." Tom’s decision in that moment sets off a chain of events that exposes the futility of trying to play all sides of a conflict. 3.
