  1. 1.The Coen brothers create movies!
    They write all their own scripts, direct and produce the movies.
    They both live in New York City
    They have each been nominated for 13 Academy Awards
    They have won four
    They are 3 years apart, age wise

    2. A person might give up on their dream if they are continuously rejected by idols, or peers. They might also give up if they lose passion or direction.

    3. Cats are independent, hairy, cuddly, fearless, and charismatic

  2. I don't know who the Cohen brothers are.

    A person might give up their dreams due to practicalities such as finances or other things that might get in the way.

    I think of cat lady, cute, claws, perky, and nimble

    The Cohen brothers:
    1. Their names are Joel and Ethan.
    2. They are the master minds for Fargo, a movie that was recently turned into a TV series.
    3. Until 2003 Joel received sole credit for directing, and Ethan for producing; now they share credit for directing
    4. They have been nominated for 13 academy awards and have won 4
    5. They received individual nominations for Fargo; Ethan for best picture and Joel for best director
    A person could give up their dreams for many reasons. For personal reasons such as finances; many people give up their dreams to take care of their family. Every person is different, so their circumstances are also different.
    CATS:
    ancient
    cute
    smart
    wild
    lions

  6. Joel David Coen[1] (born November 29, 1954) and Ethan Jesse Coen[1] (born September 21, 1957) known informally as the Coen brothers, are Academy Award winning American film directors, screenwriters, producers, and editors.
    • The brothers write, direct and produce their films jointly
    • until The Ladykillers Joel received sole credit for directing and Ethan for producing.
    • They are from Jewish decent
    • Joel has been married to actress Frances McDormand since 1984.
    • Ethan is married to film editor Tricia Cooke, and they have two children
    A person may give up on their dreams if someone downgrades them for wanting to, or if they think their goal is too hard to accomplish.
    When I think of cats:
    • Evil
    • Sneaky
    • Psycho neighbors
    • Plotting
    • Weirdos

    1) Their names are Joel David Cohen and Ethan Jesse Cohen.
    They are award winning movie directors
    They made the Movie True Grit
    Joel adopted a boy from Paraguay
    Ethan went to Princeton for his degree
    2) A person might give up on their dreams because the process is too difficult or time consuming. They also might not believe in themselves to pursue their dreams.
    3) Cats are boring, quiet, lazy, pets, and soft.

  8. 1. They are 2 Jewish brothers that are filmmakers. They grew up together and remade films that they saw on TV using a video camera. They both went to elite colleges and both are married and continue to make films together several which are well acclaimed.
    2. People can get distracted by other things in life. Particularly in the case of women, they fall in love, get married and have children so dreams get put on hold. Often, a woman gets pregnant before planning to so life changes pretty dramatically for her. Also, the financial demands of life often take precedence over dreams. One make take a job just to pay the bills and life gets more demanding as time goes on.
    3. Sneaky, sly, playful, soft, cuddly.

  11. 1) They went to college in Western Massachusetts at Bard, they directed No country for Old Men, they use a lot of great actors like Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Javier Bardem. They did Fargo, They have a lot of movies with weird humor in them.
    2) A person may give up on their dreams because "the reality of life" has a way of beating you down and making you take are current pressing needs instead of your desires.
    3) Pleasant, sleeping, skittish, self sufficient or boring.

  12. From looking on the internet it seems the Coen brothers were directors. but the Cohen Brothers well I done know who they are or what that are referenced too.
    a person might give up their dreams in way fact of not being able to sustain a living. also if your dreams aren't as practical as your life needs them to be then you might need to give up on them.
    when I think of the word cat I think of kitty, fluffy, cuddly, cute, calm

  13. The Coen brother where producer and great ones as well. Though the reason for someone to give up on there dreams for one particular thing is because of their passon for whatever it is. It there life and they know what they are good at and if it is music: well thats the way of life to getting to be something huge. fullball fluffy mean cute and skittish.
