McDormand is perfect in the role.

The brothers, who have always seemed fond of their characters, have never taken quite so overt a stand for life's simple joys.

Fargo, more than any of the Coens’ other work, is a study in contrast, namely in the sense that it’s made by two people who were clearly at one time insiders, but who have now taken the opportunity to see the Midwestern template from the outside. As such, every interaction in the film registers as a direct reflection of incongruous elements and repressed tensions.
