No Country for Old Men

Those wacky Coen brothers.  Another smash movie.  Bizarre, tense, riveting.  One of the very few movies where you don’t notice any score.  No music.  The silence is overpowering.

Man, that picture really spooked me.

A good, damned good film.  I think it’s the best film of 2007 – although I reserve judgment until I’ve  gone back over what I saw this year.  I don’t have anything to say because I don’t think I’ve processed the beauty and intricacy of the thing yet.  I don’t think I ever need to see it again, but I am damned glad I got the opportunity to see it once.

    My undying love of the Coen Bros has been validated once again. I agree with you that it may be the best movie of the year, the silence is indeed intense, and for all its greatness I may not need to watch it again.
