You should really check out «The Road» from 2006. It’s a very sad movie based on a book by the guy who wrote no country for old men. It stars Viggo Mortensen (aka Aragorn from lord of the rings) and I feel it’s a largely overlooked film, despite it being one of my all time favorite movies.
Have you watched Fargo (1996)? Directed by the Coen brothers. Some critics call it the greatest film ever made. I think that's a little over-the-top but the filmmaking is groundbreaking.
Anton haircut was a joke in several interviews that Spanish actor Javier Bardem did promoting this movie ... Anton character is textbook example of a true psychopath . Javier Bardem plays the villain in 007 Skyfall and his first American movie was Collateral in 2004 , he played villain Felix Reyes-Torrena He also plays Captain Armando Salazar in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales from 2017 . The talk Woody has with Javier ... that could have been Woody talking to his own father , who was a real life contract killer .
I've seen some of Javier Bardem's films with subtitles from his home country of Spain. His wife is also from Spain, actress Penelope Cruz who date Tom Cruise years ago.
@@osmanyousif7849 The fact that he wins is important. At the end of the movie, he gets in a car crash, leaving some hope that God's justice or something else had finally put an end to him--but nope--he's fine. He even manages to escape police afterwards.
The woman who plays the wife is actually Scottish. Kelly Macdonald give us an impressive Southern accent. She also voices the main character in the cartoon Brave.
It truely was No Country for Old Men. The good all died tragically, the wicked lived on, and the law meant nothing and could do nothing. Thats what struck me most about this movie. The title was literally what I was left saying to my self as the credits rolled. And you could really see that Tommy Lees Jones character was tired. . . .he had served long enough that nothing surprised him anymore. He was one of the last of the old guard
They refer a real Texas murder in this movie , federal judge who was shot in San Antonio in 1979 by Charles Harrelson , Woody Harrelson dad . Sam Peckinpah ... The Wild Bunch , gang realize they are becoming obsolete , The Getaway , criminal gets away , lot of influence to this movie .
@@hookoffthejab1 Basically the only music in the movie is diegetic such as the Mariachi band. The only instance of a score is the subtle baseline that you mentioned.
The "movie twin" for this is "There Will Be Blood" that is also fantastic. They were filmed a few miles apart at the same time... and you could swap the titles without missing a beat.
Interesting trivia. Silver reached $50 per ounce in 1980. At that price, a 1958 quarter quarter would be worth $9 dollars. All quarters dated 1964 and earlier contain 90% silver.
The novel and the movie are set in 1980, the last year of the disastrous Carter presidency. A huge number of quarters were produced in 1965 and in '67. It seems to me unrealistic that a random quarter circulating in Texas would be pre-65.
I love this movie. I saw it in the theater and was blown away. My friends were bored, and actually shouted at the end credits. My friends are losers, lol.
I'm curious what you thought of Tommy Lee Jones's ending monologue! That's the part of this movie that's really stuck with me since seeing it in theaters back in 07. Well that and Llewelyn's sudden and unceremonious death. Such a brutal movie
- I ' ve heard Sooooooo many people say that Tommy Lee ' s ending monologue annoyed them because they found it to be " " confusing " " . I ❤️ ❤️ L O V E D ❤️ ❤️ the monologue . -
Chigurh has his own twisted sense of honor. He breaks his own code by killing the wife without her calling the coin toss. The car accident is the universe's retribution.
He was sticking to his "sense of honor' by being true to his word to Kill Carla if Llewelyn didn't turn himself over to him. The coin toss was his willingness to let the will of the universe supersede his bond to his word. Her unwilling to let the universe decide her fate left him with no other choice. The car accident is just the universe asserting its random indifference to human notions of what ought to or ought not to happen.
hi Mary, I didn't know this myself but I heard Anton did not get to kill Llewelyn. "The fated encounter between the two men" did not come to pass. When the sheriff was driving down the road he saw hastily men jumping into a truck(?) and they say these were the cartel who found Llewelyn. Later that night Anton came for the case.
Texas represent. Also, thanks for not just glossing over the coin toss scene (I've seen some reactions where it wasn't even included) - one of the best scenes in film. Oh yeah, love your content too. :)
Not written by the Cohen brothers. It was written by Pulitzer Prize winning author Cormac McCarthy. He also wrote The Road and All The Pretty Horses among other great novels. He passed away recently.
This is my favorite Coen Bros. film to date. It's part western... part suspense thriller... part horror movie-- as far as Anton Chigurh is concerned. I'd put him up against Jason Voorhees or Michael Myers any day.
Gutted that Josh Brolin wasn't cast as Joel for TLOU adaptation...he'd have made it a classic with real star appeal. His portrayal of Llewelyn shows that he was perfect to play Joel.
Yes you could say that that Llewellen was selfish, yet if he hadn't gone back to give the dying man water, he might have gotten away with it. Assuming that he found and got rid of the tracking device soon enough. This movie has another oddity for a Coen Brothers movie beside no music. No humor. I can't recall a single funny moment in the film.
Same here - when Mary mentioned it, I realised it was true, but the movie is so engrossing that it just never occurred to me when I watched it myself, even though I've seen it about 3 times.
Thank you for not being one of those channels that feels the need to cut the violence and the naughty language as if children were going to be watching a reaction to No Country For Old Men. This was a fun, raw reaction! :)
the thing he uses to kill people and punch locks is a pneumatic tool used for killing cattle instantly. its a 2 inch rod that shoots out and pulls back out super quick!
The absence of music in this film helps to create greater tension because there’s no music to set a mood or hint at what comes next. Anything you feel or experience is entirely personal. Emotionally you’re on your own in this film. And that’s scarier than any music you could put into a film.
The weird weapon that Chigur was using (not the shotgun, the weird thing he was using to blow open locks) is what’s called a “Captive bolt pistol”. It’s a pneumatic device used to stun cattle or other livestock for slaughter. Basically it drives a pointed bolt through the forehead destroying the brain, killing the animal while keeping the autonomous nerve functions going so they’re easier to bleed out with the heart still pumping. They were used as a reliable and safe (no danger of over penetration or ricochet from a bullet) to kill animals for slaughter or euthanasia.
That was a pneumatic cattle prod (used to put cattle down humanely). I wouldn't usually call it a weapon. Also called a captive bolt pistol but usually no tank, spring loaded.
your reaction in the end, when the killer got hit at the intersection, your reaction was soo EPIC! you're like....that was soo loud, your eyes got soo big and when you screamed, i about fell out of my chair laughing. great reaction, keep the videos coming. :)
The Coen Brothers kind of went back to form with this film, as it gives off vibes similar to their first big film Blood Simple, which I highly recommend.
Great video as usual! 2 suggestions for you: “Fargo”, the movie, always made by the Coen Brothers is almost like a cousin to this film. “The Birds” by Alfred Hitchcock also is a suspense/supernatural film that was famously made without music.
I can't stop watching these "no country for old men" reactions. I always watch for the "step out of the car" scene, because their reactions to first seeing the cattle gun is so priceless. "AHH!"
People say they wouldn’t take the money, but I don’t believe them. Finding millions in a bag with nobody around to see you. It would be really difficult to just leave it sitting there.
Bardem is a great actor. Mar Adentro is a great movie with him as the protagonist and it is a spanish movie but you can find it with english subtitles.
I loved the subtlety of this film. Like Tommy Lee Jones talking about his dream at the end, making it sound like he would become one of several retired police officers around the world, spending their retirements investigating unsolved crimes from their time that bothered them. Personally, I think that was the reason for the car crash with Chigurh: Jones would continue to investigate Llewelyns death, learn of the wife’s murder, then learn of the car crash in the neighborhood and use it to track Chigurh down.
37:10 funny she called him an angel without noiticing the reference of him having a halo (his hat) when he looked at the tv reflection. (Same way Anton looked but his hair seemingly looking like a grim reaper hoodie instead)
Josh Brolin's father, James Brolin, is married to music legend Barbara Streisand. James Brolin was a major movie star in the 1970s and early 80s. Some of his best-known roles were in "Westworld" (now a cable TV series), "The Amityville Horror" (original version) and the great thriller "Capricorn One".
The coin is a metaphor; there are things in life that are completely out of your control. It's the reason Tommy Lee Jones is always looking off in the distance; he will forever rue the fact that he never caught Chigurh.

The wife character is played by a Scottish woman
I've seen some of Javier Bardem's films with subtitles from his home country of Spain. His wife is also from Spain, actress Penelope Cruz who date Tom Cruise years ago.
Chigur, one of the scariest movie villains, brilliantly played by Bardem.
He got an Oscar for it.
One of the all time great psychos in film history.
I also never heard of or saw Bardem before this movie, he is a natural born actor .
And one of the few villains who win.
@@osmanyousif7849 The fact that he wins is important. At the end of the movie, he gets in a car crash, leaving some hope that God's justice or something else had finally put an end to him--but nope--he's fine. He even manages to escape police afterwards.
The woman who plays the wife is actually Scottish. Kelly Macdonald give us an impressive Southern accent. She also voices the main character in the cartoon Brave.
Also loved her in TRAINSPOTTING, that episode of BLACK MIRROR, and that Palahniuk adaptation
She is also in Boardwalk Empire
Not surprising, since a lot of southern accents are originally from Scotland.
As a Texan, I thought it was flawless.
She's great in a recent series, Giri Haji
Javier Bardem won an Oscar for his portrayal of Chigurh.
Well deserved

thanks for posting this. I never considered any of it. It really made me appreciate the movie even more.
Next to no music in this movie, yet the tension is at a peak. Brilliant!
Music is a cheap way to build tension, you don't need it
The only sound track this movie features is a subtle baseline in a few scenes such as the coin toss scene, and a few scenes with Anton driving around
@@hookoffthejab1 Basically the only music in the movie is diegetic such as the Mariachi band. The only instance of a score is the subtle baseline that you mentioned.
The "movie twin" for this is "There Will Be Blood" that is also fantastic. They were filmed a few miles apart at the same time... and you could swap the titles without missing a beat.
You beat me to it haha. It should be standard viewing to watch both films in a double feature setting
Never seen it. Curious tho...👍
Funny. It is true. U can swap the titles.
@@FanFanBessie2 DDL Has the greatest acting performance in the history of cinema. You should watch it.
I’d say the movie twin would be Ingmar Bergman’s ‘The Seventh Seal’.
The film is set in 1980. Chigurgh tells the gas station owner the 1958 quarter took 22 years to get where it is.
Interesting trivia. Silver reached $50 per ounce in 1980. At that price, a 1958 quarter quarter would be worth $9 dollars. All quarters dated 1964 and earlier contain 90% silver.
@@marcuscato9083 I could talk about the intricacies of this film all day.

A huge number of quarters were produced in 1965 and in '67.
It seems to me unrealistic that a random quarter circulating in Texas would be pre-65.
Woody Harrelson's dad shot a federal judge in San Antonio in '79 also, you can hear them speak about it recently happening in the film.

I ' ve heard Sooooooo many people say
that Tommy Lee ' s ending monologue
annoyed them because they found
it to be " " confusing " " .
I ❤️ ❤️ L O V E D ❤️ ❤️ the monologue .

id argue the whole point of the movie was for that ending
The Coenns also did Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? which is full of music. They have such a distinctive style while still having great range.
Javier Bardem who plays Anton Chigur won an Oscar for this role.
Chigurh has his own twisted sense of honor. He breaks his own code by killing the wife without her calling the coin toss. The car accident is the universe's retribution.
Hey, he asked twice for her to call it. I'd say fair is fair. Hail Anton!
He was sticking to his "sense of honor' by being true to his word to Kill Carla if Llewelyn didn't turn himself over to him. The coin toss was his willingness to let the will of the universe supersede his bond to his word. Her unwilling to let the universe decide her fate left him with no other choice. The car accident is just the universe asserting its random indifference to human notions of what ought to or ought not to happen.
I dont think he broke his own code by killer her. If she called the coin toss correctly, he was going to let her live. But she wouldn't call it
That's your interpretation only. You pulled that out of thin air.
Eh, I think the fact that he was willing to offer a coin toss shows that he didn't even want to kill her in the first place.
Javier Bardem was the most realistic psychopath according to a study of several movie villains.
Fun fact: The boy at the end of the movie is played by the kid who voiced Jack Marston in Red Dead!
Also I’m pretty sure he’s the kid they got to play young earl on my name is earl
hi Mary, I didn't know this myself but I heard Anton did not get to kill Llewelyn. "The fated encounter between the two men" did not come to pass. When the sheriff was driving down the road he saw hastily men jumping into a truck(?) and they say these were the cartel who found Llewelyn. Later that night Anton came for the case.
Interesting. It would help explain why they never showed L's death i guess. Where did u hear that? Was it in the book?
The Mexican guy in the suit asked the mom where they were staying. That tipped off the cartel to where Llewellyn was. They went and got him.
...yes. I rewatched the movie today for the first time in years. Great movie. I'd forgotten that portion of the movie
To be honest, the results would've been the same if him and Chigurh fought again. Anton was simply more intelligent and skilled.
16 :40 the cute cat in the background.
Hell or High Water is another good crime thriller with a similar vibe to No Country for Old Men.
Very underrated film! Nobody talks about “Hell or High Water” these days!
I loved that movie.
@@gewatzig123 I do.
@@gewatzig123 Definitely a great movie, as well. One of my favourites, actually.
And Wind River, now that you mentioned it.
As the sun is often behind clouds in Scotland maybe part of why L looks so young
Texas represent. Also, thanks for not just glossing over the coin toss scene (I've seen some reactions where it wasn't even included) - one of the best scenes in film. Oh yeah, love your content too. :)
Choosing an "unknown" as the killer increased the creepiness and tension.
That weapon Chigur uses in the beginning is a captive bolt pistol, used for killing cattle.
I don't think Anton enjoys killing, he just finds it necassary quite a bit.
Not written by the Cohen brothers. It was written by Pulitzer Prize winning author Cormac McCarthy. He also wrote The Road and All The Pretty Horses among other great novels. He passed away recently.
The end scene with the sherif was an amazing scene and had so much meaning, I know you watched it but should have left it in.
He is acting so chill because he is a Vietnam Veteran. He is very used to death and terror.
“Fargo” (the film, not the series) is another Coen Brothers movie.
Dog gets shot, cat decides to stretch and then goes "eh" and falls asleep again.
My favorite movie! It’s crazy that NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN and THERE WILL BE BLOOD were released the same year, both are 🔥🔥🔥
Josh Brolin also played Cable in the Dead Pool 2
And Thanos, and Paul Atredes trainer in Dune
The actor in this movie, Josh Brolin. He plays Thanos.
@@iainsteele5737 yes, if only.
This is my favorite Coen Bros. film to date. It's part western... part suspense thriller... part horror movie-- as far as Anton Chigurh is concerned. I'd put him up against Jason Voorhees or Michael Myers any day.
Great comparison. That makes Anton more believable than Jason And Michael.
Fargo was better
this is different kind of movie, the protagonist and the character with the main character arc is actually tommy lee jones. great movie
Poor Cat, experiencing all these screamings 🤣
Javier Bardem played the villain in Skyfall too
The device the villain uses to kill people is actually used to stun animals prior to slaughter
14:40 honestly Texas is one of the safest places in the country but on the border with Mexico… there is no telling what can go down.
Your jump scares are the best!!!😀😀😀
I think the trucks chasing him had to keep an eye out for big rocks and ditches so they weren't going full speed.
This movie is the reason I use a shotgun with a silencer when I play call of duty.
True grit by the Coen brothers is really good too
This movie was one of the very few times the Academy got it right.
Although it had incredibly strong competition in THERE WILL BE BLOOD.
Wow I just watched 5 hours of expanse with you last night and now this. You’re picking great content
Being The Expanse fan in both series and books, I can't wait for the videos to popup on TH-cam
3:05 Funnily enough, that exact scene was recreated in GTA V.
Gutted that Josh Brolin wasn't cast as Joel for TLOU adaptation...he'd have made it a classic with real star appeal.
His portrayal of Llewelyn shows that he was perfect to play Joel.
Ah yes 2007, the year Josh Brolin shot two dogs in two movies.
If Thanos is unrecognizable in this movie; Wanda, Thanos and Mantis are unrecognizable in Oldboy (2013).
Also known as the 'awful Oldboy'. No one should ever watch that awful remake, when the original classic is still so great.
@@reactions5783 terrible movie but you get some nice.....

Same here - when Mary mentioned it, I realised it was true, but the movie is so engrossing that it just never occurred to me when I watched it myself, even though I've seen it about 3 times.
Javier Bardems performance as Anton remains one of my favorites.
That also set the stage to play one of the best Bond villains in Skyfall. His entrance in the film is still memorable and yet unnerving.
Fargo and No Country for Old Men are both COEN BROS
27:52 omg your cat 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Thank you for not being one of those channels that feels the need to cut the violence and the naughty language as if children were going to be watching a reaction to No Country For Old Men. This was a fun, raw reaction! :)
Hi Mary! Love your end of movie thoughts! They're always very concise and well spoken. Cheers!
25:01 I'm Mexican and it was nice seeing you dance to that music
the thing he uses to kill people and punch locks is a pneumatic tool used for killing cattle instantly. its a 2 inch rod that shoots out and pulls back out super quick!
Yes. A captive bolt gun.
The absence of music in this film helps to create greater tension because there’s no music to set a mood or hint at what comes next. Anything you feel or experience is entirely personal. Emotionally you’re on your own in this film. And that’s scarier than any music you could put into a film.
Woody Harrelson in the hat. He himself played a psychopathic killer in Natural Born Killers. His dad was a real-life crook.
The weird weapon that Chigur was using (not the shotgun, the weird thing he was using to blow open locks) is what’s called a “Captive bolt pistol”. It’s a pneumatic device used to stun cattle or other livestock for slaughter. Basically it drives a pointed bolt through the forehead destroying the brain, killing the animal while keeping the autonomous nerve functions going so they’re easier to bleed out with the heart still pumping. They were used as a reliable and safe (no danger of over penetration or ricochet from a bullet) to kill animals for slaughter or euthanasia.
I really need to watch this again. Forgot how good it is.
That was a pneumatic cattle prod (used to put cattle down humanely). I wouldn't usually call it a weapon.
Also called a captive bolt pistol but usually no tank, spring loaded.
14:06: He's a Vietnam vet, so he's seen a lot already.
your reaction in the end, when the killer got hit at the intersection, your reaction was soo EPIC! you're like....that was soo loud, your eyes got soo big and when you screamed, i about fell out of my chair laughing. great reaction, keep the videos coming. :)
The Coen Brothers kind of went back to form with this film, as it gives off vibes similar to their first big film Blood Simple, which I highly recommend.
Llewelyn Moss finished his 2nd tour in Nam on the day I was born..
There actually is a little bit of music for a very short moment, right before the Sheriff found Llewelyn's body.
The film's intensity is built by the liesurely pacing.
Great video as usual! 2 suggestions for you: “Fargo”, the movie, always made by the Coen Brothers is almost like a cousin to this film. “The Birds” by Alfred Hitchcock also is a suspense/supernatural film that was famously made without music.

@14:25 That's what she said...sorry Mary didn't resist ahahahahah
I love this movie, one of my favorites for sure!
He didn’t shoot the black dog in the beginning. He was hunting deer and saw the dog tracks running from the site of the drug deal.
Thank you. I was looking for this. I thought maybe I misheard her. Not sure where she got the idea that he did that.
24:49 Mary predicts the future
That was a captive bolt gun used to kill animals for slaughter.
Kelly Macdonald is 45 & Josh Brolin is 53, so it’d be awfully difficult for him to be her father.
If you think he was unrecognizable here try to find him in another Coen Bros film TRUE GRIT
That’s Jeff Bridges
@@jordanmcbride9215 I’m talking about Josh Brolin who plays Tom Chaney in True grit
2:25 Hey! I resent that remark. I am in Dallas,Tx right now and i am a lunatic, but not a CRAZY lunatic 😂
For a completely different side of Javier Bardem, who played Anton Chigurh, watch " Vicky, Christina, Barcelona".
It's also crazy to think he's the same guy who played The Collector in the MCU.
Bardem is a great actor. Mar Adentro is a great movie with him as the protagonist and it is a spanish movie but you can find it with english subtitles.
One Of Coens Masterpieces
23:20 you’d be surprised how small towns are like this in Texas. We have such a big state
Mary, you should watch young Thanos, an even younger Samwise Gamgee, and Short Round in The Goonies! 😁
Another interesting fact is the three main characters Llewellyn sugar and sheriff are never in the same frame during the film
it's not Sugar....its Chigurh
"Lord Farquad looking motherfucker" is the funniest description of him I've ever heard.
8:15 This scene is gold
Tommy Lee Jones is awesome in The Fugitive.
My favorite movie
This is a great movie!! One of my favorites. Anton is one of the greatest villains
That dog limping away reminds me of Anton at the end lol
I loved the subtlety of this film. Like Tommy Lee Jones talking about his dream at the end, making it sound like he would become one of several retired police officers around the world, spending their retirements investigating unsolved crimes from their time that bothered them. Personally, I think that was the reason for the car crash with Chigurh: Jones would continue to investigate Llewelyns death, learn of the wife’s murder, then learn of the car crash in the neighborhood and use it to track Chigurh down.
he had retired already, dingus!
Kelly MacDonald is only 7 year younger than Josh Brolin. She just looks very youthful.
Ever since Trainspotting she's been...ahem...too young for her own good.
This is up there with one of my fav movies, glad you watched.
I have seen this 5 times and never noticed the music at all. It is wonderful movie.
I love your reactions. 🥰
Another film closely based on a Cormac McCarthy novel is The Road
A great film but a tough watch!
It's just as hard to just simply walk into Mexico as it is to just simply walk into America Mary.
37:10 funny she called him an angel without noiticing the reference of him having a halo (his hat) when he looked at the tv reflection. (Same way Anton looked but his hair seemingly looking like a grim reaper hoodie instead)
