Behind the scenes of No Country For Old Men, with the Coen brothers, Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin, Kelly Macdonald, Tommy Lee Jones and more From Blu-ray special features of the movie
@@jimnewcombe7584 - Who the heck are you to ask people what their "credentials or authority" are? By every standard used to examine a movie as a work of art, No Country For Old Men is a goddam masterpiece.
@@MkeKen67 What do you mean, who the hell am I? I am ordinary human being who evidently knows a damn lot more about film history than anyone who feels impelled to say "the best this or that ever". Why do people feel the need to speak in absolute terms, when they could just say that they like a film, or that it's their favourite. I love this film but to say it's one of the best ever made is nonsense.
When I first saw a that Cara Jean actress was Scottish it absolutely blew me away, she did such a great job with the west Texas tailor park girl role. In a different “Making Of” video I learned Josh almost didn’t get the Llewelyn role. I loved him in this movie, LOVED!
I’m 23 I remember the first time my dad showed me this movie as a kid and Everytime I watch it I learn something new. There’s so many messages in this movie
My favorite Llewelyn Moss line is when Chigurh threatens him and Moss replies, "You won't have to look for me, I'm coming after you." Total badass, and exactly what he should say.
@@roxstarz2288 Chigurh was outta his league,Moss was a hardened army vet,but Chigurh was a psycho killer-for-hire... You seen it with Carson Wells as well,Chigurh killed him like an insect. Moss would've died in the 1st scene,he just got lucky in both hotels (imo).
I'm not a fan of violence on any level, but putting that aside, this is one of the best films ever made. It's a perfect marriage of outstanding acting, directing and story telling.
If I ever see this is on TV or it's about to come on, I drop whatever I"m doing to watch it. It grabs you and takes you in for a wild and creepy ride. I love the West Texas scenery, too. I don't think it could've been cast any better, either. So well done, Coen brothers and all who made it! It's in my top 5 movies of all time.
The attention to detail is what I love most about this movie. So many movies of the past 15 years or so have just been jumbled up with so much extraneous stuff going on, that I found it refreshing to see an "action" movie where you could actually tell what was going on in every scene. This movie is gripping at a molecular level.
Ehh... Idk. Javier Bardem made this movie a success. His portrayal of a serial killer was spot on, he was scary AF. His acting was so intense yet so calm he stole every scene he was in.
I’m currently watching this movie for the 100th time. Glad to see other people commenting about its rewatchability. Huge fan of Cormac McCarthy and the Coen brothers created a beautiful film from even more beautiful source material.
This is a movie that the more thought you put into it the more it gives back. I've heard dozens of interpretations and each one is completely reasonable, there's this sense of an almost incomprehensible weight behind everything going on.
I love almost all Coen's films. But let's not forget that their films are based on good books. They didn't write it themselves. It's an important point because a book is usually much more thoroughly worked on then a screenplay.
Well yeah they aren't creating in that sense but they're probably the best directors around. A photographer doesn't create the mountains, he photographs them and his pictures might suck or he might be Ansel Adams. Scorsese didn't create Goodfellas out of available facts and personal experience alone, he picked his favorite book on the subject and made it an all time classic.
This is my most favourite movie of all time. This is the only one which I have watched more than any other movie. Javier Bardem was just too much fking awesome.
@@MkeKen67 One of many things I liked about Breaking Bad is the comeuppance Walter gets (he was a clever but manipulative asshole), even after helping Jesse. Jesse made it (eventually to Alaska) because he was, even after all his bad deeds, a good guy. Don't get me wrong - I love No Country for Old Men.
@@clayteunis1501 - Breaking Bad is some compelling television, to be sure. I think I watched the whole series 6 times over the past year. IMO, the sickest manipulation Walter uses on Jesse is telling him that he watched Jane die, hoping that this information would make Jesse want to kill Walter when Walter was ready to die. Walter White might be the most twisted character ever to appear on TV.
that was the whole point of the movie,every expectation we are used to is subverted. Good guy does'nt win,he dies off screen,no showdown between hero & villain,sheriff does'nt catch anybody,and the movie ends with a weird dream story...
That Mexican dude with the crazy hair kept me watchin the whole movie !! It came out in 07 and I just watched it two days ago !!! It literally was amazing because that whole thing happened to me 40 years ago and it simply blew my mind !!! What a movie!!! My hats off to all involved!!! Especially TLJ ,, he’s just the man !!
I don't know how many times I've watched the film. Every time I do it is almost a new and fresh experience. I see something new I missed previously - it's like the film continues to evolve over time.
I looked this up after watching the movie .that assassin freaked me out .his character reminds of a kid from down the street he was the same but he spent his life behind bars .for crazy shit he did in the late 80s
this has become my all time favorite movie, above gladiator, godfather, akira, seven samurai, blade runner (the original one, not the overrated sequel), shawshank redemption, man with no name trilogy (dollar trilogy)
@@NicolasSilvaVasault Not at all. Troy was a much better movie and that's saying something. Gladiator's just the cliched tale of Mr. Spotless, moral hero who just wants to grow crops and be with his family when it's suddenly all TAKEN from him. It's about as shallow as a John Wayne western.
@@spencerwellingtongeneratio9380 i love troy too, one of my fav movies of all times, but gladiator took a "simple" story and narrated, and played it so well, is like akira kurosawa's seven samurai, the story was simple, the execution absolutely perfect
@@NicolasSilvaVasault Eh, maybe, but in my mind it's far important that the story actually be interesting, as that's kind of the foundation for everything else. In my mind it just tells a very cliched story I don't particularly like. Like take the dollars trilogy you mentioned, I'd consider that way better by a mile, particularly the last two entries because the plot and especially characters were so much more interesting and engaging.
It's original music for the movie, by Carter Burwell. Name of the song is Blood Trails. There's a cover of it on Spotify by a London orchestra, unfortunately the original isn't on there.
J'ai travaillé au festival de Cannes et j'ai vu ce film exceptionnel. Je ne sais plus qui a gagné la palme d'or en 2007,mais je sais qui l'a injustement perdu:No country for old man
Unfortunately punching out the deadbolt with an air tool would not allow entry because the bolt would still be stuck in place with no easy way to pull it out. Other than that bit of fiction, it was a great film.
19:05 the only way to dispose of a 1979 Mercury Zephyr, my family had the Ford version (Fairmont), an awful awful vehicle, the horn was on the indicator lever via a push, not the center of the steering wheel, truly awful. I think my dad paid $7900 for it brandy new.
This is a great movie but one thing is never explained. Llewelyn Moss abandons his room and returns to the motel the next morning, asking for an extra room (38) to get the valise but his old room (138) is now occupied by the Mexicans. The unexplained mystery is how the Mexicans got the room because he never changed rooms, only asked for an extra room. I found a thread discussing this mystery and one comment suggested that the Mexicans broke into room 138. That could be the case but when Anton Chigurh kills the Mexicans in room 138, the door shows no signs of forced entry.
I all really wanted Moss to get away and see him and his wife on the beach, him still wearing his boots and waking up from a nap, gun in hand, forever looking over his shoulder. I guess I give the Cohens a pass though, I think they're the goats right now, Even Tarantino and Scorsese are a little behind the Cohens in overall greatness in my opinion but definitely a bit of a downer meh ending for No Country
It's a classic "Gold, Gold, Who's Got The Gold?!?" story. See also: Leone's "Dollars" Trilogy, Zatoichi And The Chest Of Gold (the best Ichi-san), and EVERY Die Hard.
@@closertotheheart There is a thing called Dark humor & thats what he means...it is very subtle , my advise for you is to watch it again and absorb it well
my favourite movie... sad i was only 7 when it was on the theathers, I watched this movie several times and I really love it because it's just like real life, when you involve yourself in something that's the result of destruction and death, that's exactly what's going to go after you, and you can't escape it, it's simple as that, and this life rule NEVER fails
Because they came out the same year, No Country and There Will Be Blood are often compared. Unfortunate for No Country to have to be compared to crap like There Will Be Blood. Blood will be forgotten long before No Country.
