                                   FARGO

                              a screenplay by

Ethan Coen

and

Joel Coen
The following text fades in over black:
This is a true story. The events depicted in this film took place

in Minnesota in 1987. At the request of the survivors, the names

have been changed. Out of respect for the dead, the rest has been

told exactly as it occured.
	FLARE TO WHITE



	FADE IN FROM WHITE



Slowly the white becomes a barely perceptible image:  white

particles wave over a white background.  A snowfall.
A car bursts through the curtain of snow.
The car is equipped with a hitch and is towing another car,

a brand-new light brown Cutlass Ciera with the pink sales

sticker showing in its rear window.
As the car roars past, leaving snow swirling in their dirft,

the title of the film fades in.
