Leif,
The cultural-historical influence from Scandinavia is exactly what I was
hoping to portray.
Thanks for the endorsement from the SOURCE.

Here is every instance of the word "Yeah" in the film.

 Hi Everyone!
If any of you teach undergrads, this might be useful.
I had my first classes of the new semester yesterday .
The topic was on  regional dialects of English  as a way
to introduce Multicultural Education and my students.
What struck me was, they were so young that they
had never heard of the movie "Fargo".

Here is a profile of the mindset of the class of 2015.
