  Joel and Ethan Coen (b. 1954, 1957) started their careers in obscurity on a shoestring budget cajoled from family and friends. Working entirely outside the studio system, they scored an unlikely first hit in 1984 with their postmodern noir film, Blood Simple . Two decades and a dozen movies later, the Coens are now among the best-known writer/directors in Hollywood, turning out major studio releases featuring stars such as George Clooney, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Tom Hanks.
