“Unraveling the Chaos: How Noah Hawley’s ‘Fargo’ Transforms Mundane Life into Dark Comedy Gold”
‘Fargo’
When stuck in these situations where crossing paths is inevitable—when stuck in society, the urban trap in the middle of the wilderness—it’s then that we see humans react unpredictably. It’s then that we see them resort to animal instincts.
That these characters could communicate, all to avoid the more heinous futures that await them is a key truth in these stories.
It would seem that the unknown quantity of order suddenly becomes clear to these same people. Left to their own devices, it seems that only the intervention of accidents—and a seeming unwillingness to make the unknown known—are all that separates us from the characters in Fargo. And again, writing that claim about each season being true makes it all the more possible for an audience to see that connection.
