    Storyline

    • Trivia
      An unforeseen expense for the film was the make-up department buying expensive fake blood at eight hundred dollars a gallon. Joel Coen realized why they were spending so much when it came time to film the scene where Llewelyn (Josh Brolin) stumbles across the aftermath of a shoot-out with lots of extras lying around dead in the dust. Ordinary fake blood (made with sugar) would have meant the extras would have been crawling with bugs and ants, while the insects had no interest in the expensive stuff.

      When Moss returns across the bridge from Mexico back to Eagle Pass, he has no clothes. He returns to the Western store where he bought his boots, but the plot established that the store was in Del Rio, over 55 miles away. Then he is in his new clothes by the river in Eagle Pass retrieving the satchel of money. Did he travel 110 miles to buy clothes?
    • Quotes

      Anton Chigurh: What's the most you ever lost on a coin toss?

      Gas Station Proprietor: Sir?

      Anton Chigurh: The most. You ever lost. On a coin toss.

      Gas Station Proprietor: I don't know. I couldn't say.

      [Chigurh flips a quarter from the change on the counter and covers it with his hand]

      Anton Chigurh: Call it.

      Gas Station Proprietor: Call it?

      Anton Chigurh: Yes.

      Gas Station Proprietor: For what?

      Anton Chigurh: Just call it.

      Gas Station Proprietor: Well, we need to know what we're calling it for here.

      Anton Chigurh: You need to call it. I can't call it for you. It wouldn't be fair.

      Gas Station Proprietor: I didn't put nothin' up.

      Anton Chigurh: Yes, you did. You've been putting it up your whole life, you just didn't know it. You know what date is on this coin?

      Gas Station Proprietor: No.

      Anton Chigurh: 1958. It's been traveling twenty-two years to get here. And now it's here. And it's either heads or tails. And you have to say. Call it.

      Gas Station Proprietor: Look, I need to know what I stand to win.

      Anton Chigurh: Everything.

      Gas Station Proprietor: How's that?

      Anton Chigurh: You stand to win everything. Call it.

      Gas Station Proprietor: Alright. Heads then.

      [Chigurh removes his hand, revealing the coin is indeed heads]

      Anton Chigurh: Well done.

      [the gas station proprietor nervously takes the quarter with the small pile of change he's apparently won while Chigurh starts out]

      Anton Chigurh: Don't put it in your pocket, sir. Don't put it in your pocket. It's your lucky quarter.

      Gas Station Proprietor: Where do you want me to put it?

      Anton Chigurh: Anywhere not in your pocket. Where it'll get mixed in with the others and become just a coin. Which it is.

      [Chigurh leaves and the gas station proprietor stares at him as he walks out]

    What's the most money you ever lost on a coin toss?
    Opinions do look to be sharply divided on this typically interesting effort for the Coen brothers. Some hail it a masterpiece, others don't see the appeal at all. While this viewer doesn't quite fit into the former camp, he will say that it's one of the more unconventional examples of crime fiction that one is likely to see. It's much more of a character piece than anything, with some grisly scenes of violence here and there. Based on the novel by Cormac McCarthy, it centres around three characters, one being a poor hunter named Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin), who one day stumbles into the aftermath of some drug deal gone horribly wrong. He finds $2 million on the scene and impulsively decides to keep the money for himself, while a mysterious, creepy, sadistic stranger named Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem) tracks him down, porting a unique pressurized air weapon. Somewhat involved is a weary Texas sheriff, Ed Tom Bell (Tommy Lee Jones), who's unsettled by what he sees as the changing times. Now, granted, what's going to test the patience of some of the viewers are some of the monologues; this isn't for people who want a straightforward story and who are turned off by philosophical musings. One can hardly fail to notice how low key most of this narrative is; even in the more intense scenes there's never really a sense of urgency. On the plus side, what we do get are some excellent character moments from the solid star trio of Brolin, Bardem, and Jones. The supporting cast is equally impressive - Woody Harrelson, Kelly Macdonald, Garret Dillahunt, Tess Harper, Barry Corbin, Stephen Root, and Beth Grant. The Coens work with some of their reliable prior collaborators such as composer Carter Burwell and cinematographer Roger Deakins. All things considered, "No Country for Old Men" may not be to all tastes, and does require some patience on the part of the viewer. It also doesn't resolve itself in the way one might expect for this genre, and might prove to be less than satisfactory in this regard for some of those watching. There's one fantastic confrontation near the end, but the film closes, curiously enough, after a monologue by Bell about a dream he's had. How much or how little all of this works will be up to the individual viewer. In any event, the actors are all fantastic, especially Bardem, and they make the journey worthwhile. Eight out of 10.

    • If Llewelyn found the transponder, say when he arrived home upon finding the money and destroyed it, would he likely have had never been found by Chigurh?
    • Is 'No Country for Old Men' based on a book?
    • Where does the film's title come from?
