Fargo is a 1996 film created by brothers Joel and Ethan Coen. It is set in the Upper Midwest (the opening and closing scenes are set in North Dakota and the rest in Minnesota, USA) and tells the tale of a car salesman (William H. Macy), who has hired two hit men (Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare) to kidnap his wife (Kristen Rudrud) for a ransom of $1,000,000 that sets off a chain of murders in the region.
Fargo was a brand of truck manufactured and sold in Canada by the Chrysler Corporation. Fargo trucks were almost identical to Dodge trucks, save for trim and name, but were sold by Chrysler-Plymouth dealers. Production began in the late 1920s; the name Fargo was discontinued after 1972 for Canada, but lived longer for other countries under the Chrysler Corporation's badge engineering marketing approach.
FARGO (Fourteen-o-one Automatic Report Generation Operation) was the predecessor to the popular RPG programming language (RPG). FARGO was more of a utility program than a programming language, whereas RPG had a program generation process that produced an executable object.
