Raising Arizona

1987, Movie, 1h 34min

The delightfully sophomoric sophomore feature from the Coen brothers stars Nicolas Cage as a dim-bulb bandit whose solution to the infertility of his ex-cop wife (Holly Hunter) is to babynap one fourth of a gaggle of famous quadruplets—sending the new “family” on the run through a relentlessly oddball, cartoon-crazy vision of the Southwest that’s part Preston Sturges, part Looney Tunes.
