A Serious Man: Michael Stuhlbarg

The star of the latest film from Joel and Ethan Coen is not a George Clooney or a Brad Pitt, but the previously unknown - but perfectly cast - Michael Stuhlbarg. We talked to him in London recently, and asked him just how much of this film is autobiographical for the Coens, and whether he can explain the problem of Schrodinger's Cat to us...

He is ggorgeous. (And a brilliant actor). It is sad that he wasn't nominated for an oscar for his part in this brilliant film.

That's very interesting--he completely misses the point of the experiment, despite the movie pegging it so well. The point is--the cat is simultaneously alive AND dead, until we observe it. The universe has it both ways. How can that be? It is not for us to understand. Hashem does not owe us an answer. Embrace the mystery.

Which is not to complain about Stuhlbarg, certainly. He is nothing less than genius in this movie.
