Description
Inside Llewyn Davis follows a week in the life of a young folk singer as he navigates the Greenwich Village folk scene of 1961. Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) is struggling to make it as a musician against seemingly insurmountable obstacles – some of them of his own making. Living at the mercy of both friends and strangers, Llewyn’s misadventures take him from the basket houses of Greenwich Village to an empty Chicago club – on an odyssey to audition for a music mogul – and back again. Brimming with music performed by Isaac, Justin Timberlake and Carey Mulligan, as well as Marcus Mumford and Punch Brothers, Inside Llewyn Davis is an epic on an intimate scale. The film represents the Coen Brothers’ fourth collaboration with multiple-Grammy and Academy Award winning music producer T Bone Burnett.
