    The whole point of the movie is to be a certain anti-western. The hero dies offscreen unceremoniously, the sheriff gives up and never catches the villain, the most sympathetic character in the movie gets murdered and the most evil one walks off into the sunset. The reason for this is because it's pointing out how old people in each era always look at the past through rose colored glasses. The truth is the world has never been kind and just nor has it been evil. It's all just kind of chaos and it's largely out of our hands.

      Interesting take. And unlike the anti-hero protagonists of the spaghetti westerns, post-spaghetti westerns, and other anti-Hero protagonists, we do not and cannot form a connection with him. There’s no redeeming qualities that hook us, that invite empathy and identification.
      I think you’re not quite right about the “whole point”. The “anti-western” structure is structure. It’s a mirrored structure of the western like you’re saying, but the structure is supporting the themes, not the theme of the movie.
      The themes are so deep that comment or reply won’t do them justice. And to be honest, I’m still wresting with theme. I thought I understood the themes, but this reaction got me thinking about them again.
      Just the same, I bet you (johnrussell) wouldn’t have any problem summarizing them more explicitly than you already have. Or don’t. I’m not telling you what to do. 😊

      More generally, I looked it as more contrasting the chance and tragedies of real life versus people thinking they're the heroes of their own lives. Lewellyn cares about others enough to bring water to a dying man but he assumes he can kill an evil man but ends up dying. Good people can die of unforeseen circumstances like the mom with cancer or running across a car in need of help on the road and being killed by a psychopath instead.

      @@Scary__fun Good point. I'm an atheist, but I don't hate religion the way the a lot of atheists do. Still, I get really annoyed when things work out for people and they take it as evidence that God was looking out for them for their righteousness. It's so anecdotal. When you look at pain and pleasure on the scale of which all of humanity has experienced it and who it all has been meted out to there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason.

    If there's a "winner" in this movie it's probably Sheriff Bell, who was wise enough to retire when he realized the world had moved on beyond his ability to contend with it. Anton doesn't really win because Anton isn't about winning or losing. His principles are beyond that kind of idea. He's more of a universal force, a personification of Death who carries out the whims of fate. People cross his path, by chance, meet his gaze, by chance, and die, by chance. The most he can do, if he has any sympathy for them, is to give them an extra chance in the coin flip, which is one of the principles he follows. He gets the money, but like Carson says, the money's not important to him. He never even uses any money in the movie except when he gives some to the kid at the end for his shirt. Winning doesn't come into it, he just performs his function.

    • @Scary__fun
      @Scary__fun 24 дні тому +1

      I'd agree with Anton being an agent death and chance... until the very end where chance also impacts him, literally, with the car crash. So, he thinks he is an agent of death but as Llewellyn's wife says, it isn't the coin (signifying chance) that is bringing death, it's him that's deciding to do it. That's what makes the story so great, it makes you think about deep questions of life and death.

  • @cheezer57
    @cheezer57 14 днів тому +1

    The story is from the perspective of the Sheriff. He is the narrator. It's how he feels time, for his kind, has passed him by. All that he thought was logical, and fair about life, isn't..He is overwhelmed by senseless violence, and feel's powerless in the face of it all..That's why the ending is perfect...Some stories shouldn't end tied up with a pretty bow wrapped around it. We all know that's not how actual life happens, most times.

    Most people don't get it, the story is about *"The Sheriff"* that's why the movie starts and ends with him. The title says it all *No Country for Old Men* its set around 1980, when the Drug Wars started, the Mexican Cartels and their American counterparts were in turf wars so to speak. Killings skyrocketed on those small Texas Border towns. That why it end with him *retiring* it was no place (country) for old lawmen, who most never had to shoot their guns. That is why Tommy Lee Jones is the main character.

    Anton is the personification of Fate. He's generous with the coin toss, giving people the opportunity to change it. Moss represents Chance, it was by this he found the money etc. Sheriff Bell represents Order, but when Chance meets Fate, he feels "overmatched," he has no choice but to bow out, hence No Country For Old Men. Ps. Heads on the coin toss is always right cuz the point is if you use your HEAD, you won't end up on the TAIL end of the barrel.

    Over the years this has become my favorite movie. Some small details. There is no soundtrack\music. Not during the opening, not during the movie and not during the credits. It gives the movie an intimacy without us being manipulated by a soundtrack. Another thing, the opening shots there are long, lingering shots of barren landscapes - very similar to the opening shots of Stanly Kubricks 2001: A Space Odyssey. I compared them once, think they are both 7-8 shots and roughly the same length.
    This is a horror movie, but not because of the guy with the bad haircut. The only real conversations are the three with the main character, the sheriff (the old man). The sheriff with the other sheriff "once we stop saying ma'am or sir, the rest follows", the sheriff with his friend "what you got ain't anything new", and his two dreams at the end. The first dream was about "losing some money" a single short sentence that dismisses the entire movie you just watched. The second about his father going ahead, making things better. Then he woke up. It's the realization there is no 'progress'. Things will never get better because of human nature.

    The story, though fictitious, is based on the US-Mexico drug trade that reached a high peak in 1980 (and still continues today). It resulted in lots of organized crime (around the US border states: Texas (depicted in the film), and also New Mexico, Arizona, and California (where I live now today)). Today, since the 80s, those 4 states remain the highest in level of drugtrafficking and organized crime.

    This movie is based on a book of the same name by Cormac McCarthy, a fantastic author. One of his other novels, "Blood Meridian", *is* in fact based on a true story, features a villain (Judge Holden) who (probably) actually existed and has been referred to as "Anton Chigurh at proper scale". Give it a read (J/K, it's absolutely terrifying; approach w/ caution).
    The device used by Chigurh is usually used to kill cattle. The lack of sound means that it won't startle the whole herd if you kill one, there's no bullet fragments to dig out of the head, and it's (in aggregate) much safer to use than a gun. Previously, farmers used to use a large hammer to knock the cows in the head, which is comparatively time & labor intensive. Mike Hanlon uses a similar device as a kid in "IT".

  • @robmann400
    @robmann400 25 днів тому

    There’s a lot going on in this movie starting with the title. ‘NCFOM’ is a line in the poem, ‘Sailing To Byzantium’ which involves an old man coming to terms with his own mortality. That’s what’s really scaring our main character, Sheriff Bell, more than anything else in the movie, Death.
    Anton only kills when he has too. When he’s not sure the person is a threat, he gets out a coin. Anton thinks he’s an agent of The Fates (of Greek mythology) or something along those lines.
    This Anton business is all about the philosophical argument of Free Will vs. Determinism. You hit on it yourself when you were talking about the dead dog at the drug deal gone wrong crime scene. You said those guys made choices, the dog didn’t.
    There’s a recent book called Determined by Robert Sapolsky that argues the opposite. Scientifically speaking, all the evidence seemingly points out that we are incapable of making choices, just like serial killers have to kill others, but there’s more to it than that. It’s very, very, counterintuitive.
    I won’t go further into it right now but you can get the gist of it on youtube. There are tons of interviews of the scientist who wrote the book.
    Determinism really messes with the idea of using justice systems as anything more than just a form of containment as any ideas of retribution, punishment, and an eye for an eye mentality, all go out the window if in actuality, no one is capable of making conscious choices.
    Nobody come at me on this please; watch the Sapolsky interviews, or read the book first. I just find the book interesting but am no one qualified to have a serious opinion on either the philosophical or the scientific deas.
    When Anton says to the gas station owner, “You married into it.” he half chokes on a peanut or whatever, because he is shock at the intricacies involved with the moment. The Fates spun the thread of both Anton and the station owner to come together at this moment. Anton realized the station owner married into the coin toss. It could not be avoided.
    Anton’s relieved when the station owner calls the coin correctly. I don’t think Anton kills people like a serial killer does. He’s just doing his job, and sure, he’s crazy, and a walking metaphor for Determinism.
    When Mrs. Moss refuses to call the coin, Anton kills her because she might have information from her husband, or maybe because he keeps his promises. He doesn’t know if she’s a threat but refuses to call the coin toss. “The coin ain’t have no sa it’s just you.” That’s the Free Will argument.
    The book, ‘Determined,’ subject matter isn’t metaphysical in nature, the Determinism in the book does not involve gods, or The Fates necessarily, but Anton believes something metaphysically crazy that justifies his killing for sure.
    There’s much more too this film including, foundation myths, The Aeneid, the CIA, Vietnam, and stuff I don’t have time to go into, the food just arrived.
    Thanks for making videos eh.

    This movie won Best Picture in a tough year. Atonement was also based on a fantastic novel, and has one of the best endings ever filmed. But No Country For Old Men is a masterpiece from the Coen Bros who have made a series of film classics from Fargo to The Big Lebowski to O Brother Where Art Thou (3 films in a row), No Country, a remake of True Grit that is far better than the John Wayne version, and closer to the book. I would actually recommend you try True Grit, it's more of a straight forward story of vengeance in the Old West.
    One of my favorite things about this film is that the three main characters never share a scene together apart from Sheriff Bell arriving too late to speak to Llewellyn, and Anton and Llewellyn shooting at each other, but never seeing each other's face. What other movie could ever even attempt something like that. Also, it took me seeing it in the theater on the fourth time before I noticed there is almost no music, just the mariachi band playing over a wounded Llewellyn in a truly twistedly funny scene. The Coen Bros are the best filmmakers of the last 40 years. You should check out more of their films. Blood Simple is similar in tone to No Country, and was their first film in 1984. Raising Arizona in 1987 is a screwball comedy with the greatest opening scene in film history, an 11 minute setup for the entire movie, including three robberies, a meet cute, three jail sentences, a fertility struggle, and a kidnapping plot involving an officer of the law, twice decorated. They followed that with the gangster film Miller's Crossing and the surreal Barton Fink. That's plenty to start with. Great reaction, it's not the easiest movie to follow, and intentionally so, like a novel, and good commentary!

    In Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian, there's a scene with analogous tension to the dog pursuit of Llewelyn. Comanche are the doing the pursuing in that story. (No Country for Old Men is a Cormac McCarthy novel.)

    The weapon is called "captive bolt pistol" (or gun), there is no projectile, it works like a gas powered piston. It is used at slaugherhouses to stun (or kill) the cattle for slaughter. It ejects a piston at very high speed, but the "projectile" doesn't leave the gun.

    19:10 - Many buildings will not include a 13th floor (out of superstition and tradition). So if you count the floors from the outside, there may be 18, but the elevator will go to 19. Thus the weird dialogue.

    The missing floor comment is a joke. Most buildings don't have a thirteenth floor (for superstitious reasons). The floor after the 12th is the 14th. In the movie "1408" the room in the title is actually on the 13th floor.

    19:13 Out of superstition they use to number floors 11, 12, 14, 15, etc on buildings. Purposefully mislabeling the 13th floor. Of course, there still is a 13th floor. It's just that nobody has to put "13" on any address to the building.

    Chigurh makes the point that the universe is random, like a coin toss. But when his own precious personal ass gets crushed in a car accident (sometimes you're not the one flipping the coin), he insists on giving the kid money for his shirt, because he's buying his silence. Even though the kid offers it to him for nothing, for free. The little bit at the end about the dream of his father 'carrying the fire' refers to the idea of civilization going forward in community and family. Good movie.

    Just to cheer you up a bit - Anton most likely wouldn't survive. He's got open bone fracture, which means that without prompt medical help he bleeds out. And of course he would stay out of hospitals, as they would report him to police. In the best case he may survive but loose his arm.
    Unlike normal movies, which are mostly deterministic and follow a logical chain of events, Coeh brothers like the randomness and fate to play part. That's why Moss was killed not by Chigurgh, like it would be anticipated, but in a more unlikely situation. Also Chigurgh's fate was quite random - it dodged the antagonists and didn't make mistake, but eventually he didn't not dodge the punishment given by the universe itself.
