Ethan and Joel Coen are back in action, and their latest creation is a comedy titled "A Serious Man." Four brand-new clips have popped on the Web recently, and you can check out the embeds after the jump.

"Man" centers on a guy named Larry Gopnik, a physics professor whose life starts to fall apart when his wife decides to leave him, his lazy brother refuses to move out, his son has problems at school, and his daughter is trying to get a nose job.

These brief clips all give you a better idea how miserable his existence currently is. They don't reflect the same energy and fun we've seen in the great trailer, but they are nonetheless interesting enough to look at.

Michael Stuhlbarg, Simon Helberg, Richard Kind, Adam Arkin, George Wyner, Sari Lennick, Jessica McManus and Aaron Wolff star. Watch for "A Serious Man" in theaters this October.
