Fargo
Fargo
Season 4
is set in the 1950s in Kansas City, Missouri.
The leaders of two powerful rival clans, one of Italian origin and the other African-American, decide to exchange their sons to seal the peace ...
Each season of the
Fargo
series
is an independent story, this 4th season presents very nuanced characters, with fine psychology.
We get attached to even the most horrible of them.
If violence is often at the rendezvous in
Fargo
, it is also a series that does not lack humor.
As for the soundtrack, for this season, it is the groove of the 50s that is being honored, a success.
4 seasons, 41 episodes of approximately 48 minutes.
Season 4 is available on Salto and the first 3 can be seen on Netflix.
