Okay Then
One of my favorite comedies is Raising Arizona. It's filled with oddball characters, interesting camera work and lots of great dialog. One phrase that caught on with us for a while was "Okay Then". It's a sort of countrified shrug or acquiescence. I don't know if it's a regionalism or just something the Coen Brothers decided to throw in — it appears several times in the film. Here are two favorites: the parole board scene and the bank robbery scene.
