The movie “Fargo” ends with one of the most iconic lines in Coen brothers’ history. As chief of police Marge Gunderson (France McDormand) drives the murderous Gaear (Peter Stormare) to the police station, she says, “There’s more to life than a little money, you know. Don’tcha know that? And here ya are, and it’s a beautiful day.”`
That one line is what the show is “really” about, according to series showrunner, writer, director and executive producer Noah Hawley. “It’s the idea of the sins that people commit for money,” Hawley told TheWrap.
That’s explored in Year 2 when the death of a crime family’s patriarch leads to an all-out war as corporate America looms in the background.
