No Country for Old Men
Saw No Country for Old Men at a regular theater Thursday, 22 November 2007, at 450pm. This is filmmaking of the highest quality. A lot to digest. I will admit that although I thought the movie was a well-made film and that I liked it, I would have liked it more if I understood some parts there were difficult for me to understand (it was difficult for me to understand the dialogue that were spoken with a Texan accent.) However, I read an early draft of the screenplay by the Coen Brothers and I like the movie even more now. I can now see this movie being nominated for Oscar Best Pic. I can see Javier Bardem winning an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. Tommy Lee-Jones and Josh Brolin give the best performances of their career. Great acting from Kelly McDonald and Woody Harrelson as well. Screenplay, direction, editing are flawless. This is probably the first film I've seen with hardly any musical score. I've really come to appreciate the movie, and the effort taken to make it, more now.
