Why people love it

People revisit The Ladykillers for the same reason it broke through in 2004: clear stakes, memorable faces, and a crime rhythm that doesn't stall in the middle. Ethan Coen keeps the ensemble pointed in one direction. The comedy and crime blend is the engine: it lets the film shift registers without feeling like two different movies stitched together.
