I know it's been a long time, but the scene where Llewellyn picks up the spent cartridges is because center-fire cartridges can be re-used and they're not cheap. Also it's a pretty courteous thing to "pick up your brass" especially if you've just killed someone with a semiautomatic pistol. Helps preserve anonymity. Someone else can correct me if I got a few things wrong.

For a film with such sparse dialogue, it is a bit unfortunate how much of it does get talked over. Perhaps some of what was missed may have been enlightening for some of the nuances of the story.

For me, the ending is incredibly lovely and moving. Sheriff Ed Tom is trying to understand the world, of the good and evil fabric in which he plays a part. It is really his story all along (the movie fools us that it's Llewellyn's). He begins by telling us of a man who killed for fun, who always planned to kill. He's horrified and puzzled by it just as he will be by Chigurh. He's a lost yet truly good man. He looks for hope, even for God but can't find solace. He focuses on his job as the means to that end, to stopping evil. But here is one he cannot stop. He blames himself for every step where he wasn't fast enough. Finally Ed Tom can't look on evil a day longer. Chigurh seems to personify everything he's fought against for so long. He's given up. Even though his Uncle Ellis reminds him that nothing has really changed -- men have always done great evil and often for no discernible reason. But Ed Tom won't hear him. Then he's retired. He has that dream. And as he sits at the table and tells his wife about it, the meaning of the dream, to me, is that there is hope. Even with the darkness and hopelessness of the world, he is not alone. Ed Tom's father comes to him in the dream to rekindle his hope, to light the way and be there waiting so he is not alone. I love the dream story, the way it resonates and what it can mean. It's a beautiful ending to me -- it's about mortality, about life going on, about our acceptance of death, and even of the acceptance of what we can or cannot do. Perhaps it is even about God, or about something farther on beyond life and death (to me there is a definite feel of a larger universe to this film -- Chigurh's fate for instance almost feels like a cosmic punishment for what he has just done to Carla Jean). I suspect the ending means different things to different people. But that's what it means to me. There is great evil, but also goodness and hope and light ahead. Just my 2 cents.

i was always confused about this movie, but i liked parts of it, thank you for going more into it. i was not even sure if he killed carla jean.

brian burke

i heard george and simone talked about how much they like to just hear tommy lee jones talk. you should see a movie he did called THE SUNSET LIMITED, it is a sad movie and directed by tommy lee jones but it is just him and samuel l jackson talking in a room together and i think it is written by the same guy who wrote NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN. it sounds boring but its not and its more like 12 ANGRY MEN, and powerful.

So for decades I have had two favorite movies which are The Shawshank Redemption and The Princess Bride. There is no 1a and 1b. To me they are just perfect. I think I'm adding No Country to the top of my list. I keep coming back to it and I never get bored with it. I'm just about to begin watching you react to it and I hope that it's as special to you two as it is to me. Trust me when I say that the meaning of it will evolve as you grow older.

Jay Davis

Simone's dream is quite common. It means a fear of not watching and filming your reaction to Dunkirk.

“Sugar?”

As great as this movie is, this is like the 50th reaction I've seen. It feels like reaction channels all copy the same titles - a bit more lesser-seen films wouldn't go amiss, though I understand this was voted for by us patrons. Polls tend to go for the best known titles, which is usually the same titles. I understand when starting a channel you'd need to do this but once established I don't see why you can't do a broader scope of films. Also channels only seem to do titles available on streaming platforms, which again limits the choice to only more well-known or recent releases. This isn't a dig, just an observation.

I love this movie... was eagerly awaiting this reaction...

Reaction Channels watch alot of the same movies for a couple reasons. The first one is they need to watch popular and well known movies to have an audience theres also the fact that alot of the bigger reaction channels probably share lots of the same patrons who all vote for the same things. Ultimately at the end of the day they are a business that need to make money.

Suggestions to get you away from war stuff for a bit - Backdraft, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, The Outsiders, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Romancing the Stone, Ruthless People.

The best movies are great when first watched but have so much subtext that you can also just keep rewatching them. This is certainly one of those films. Such great characters and story.

Brant

True Grit (2010) is another incredible Coen Brothers western

Grand Moff Slackin'

One of my favorite movies! Hopefully it’s not uncouth to mention another content creator, but Natalie Gold’s reaction video to this movie ends with a discussion between her and her partner about the movie. He has watched No Country multiple times so there was some good insight there.

i honestly dont know how anyone likes her and how she has so many subs. i tried watching her a few times and her shrieking voice is just grating. shes just so damn loud

Young Blood Priest

I haven’t seen Scoundrels or The Outsiders but Close Encounters and Romancing the Stone are classics.

Ok, now by association, you have to watch VGHS (if you didn't already)

Jester

They should have watched the directors cut. It has an extended final scene where Tommy Lee Jones mentions a third dream where he cuts off his finger and then Kate Bosworth shows up to help him look for it.

Martin

I would really love for Simone and George to start delving into some Paul Thomas Anderson movies. Boogie Nights, Magnolia, and There Will Be Blood are all brilliant.

ChickensAreRacist

That scene with the other old heads talking about ‘it’s all drugs and money…’, after watching now, had a rippling effect when the boys who helped Chighur at the end get away just cuz he offered them a bill

Tenn Seven

This movie seems quiet because there is absolutely no music in it. EDIT: George figured that out at some point.

Tenn Seven

"The old retired guy he went to visit" was Sheriff Bell's uncle, Ellis.

Good reaction you guys. Much better than the reaction people had in the theatre I went to go see with my then gf. People were pissed at that ending. I loved it, but everyone else were shocked or angry. It was great. One of my favorite moviegoing experiences. I love when movies have a strong reaction to them, no matter positive or negative. It means it worked.

Joe D. MacGuffinstuff

Is any Coen movie NOT unique? It's a novel movie and a novel of a movie, vice versa, strike that, reverse it, and watch it again because you'll both need and want to. Also, good guess George but Kelly MacDonald who played Carla Jean is not Irish but Scottish. If I remember correctly her first film was TRAINSPOTTING, directed by Danny Boyle based on the novel by Irvine Welsh. Story I heard was she was tending bar in Edinburgh and Danny Boyle scouted her for the part, I don't know if she had any prior acting experience or if that's even true, but I know she's actually had a decent career since, she's good.

Also the kid offered the shirt off his back, literally, to help Chighur. Once the poison of money, a simple $100 bill, was introduced, he was instantly fighting with his friend. You can see how easy money, or unearned money, can corrupt innocence throughout the whole movie.

Punch-Drunk love is my favorite after Magnolia, huge showing for Adam Sandler in a serious role too. PTA is a beast.

Well, no non-diegetic music. Plenty of vague tunes and the musicians on the street. Plus technically I guess the end credits music counts, but yeah, mostly very quiet.

Kelly MacDonald really shines in the HBO show Boardwalk Empire. Also, I was a bit shocked at how good her Texas accent/drawl is the first time I saw this movie.

ADHDaldo

In the opening monologue we hear Tommy Lee Jones talking about how hectic the world is coming to. He can’t make sense of any of it. When they kill Llewelyn they put you in his shoes. It’s the middle of the movie and suddenly he’s dead without a big showdown or anything. You yourself cannot make any sense of it. It’s genius. I also wanted to mention that Anton Chigurh was voted most accurate serial killer and he does not like to get his boots bloody. Which is also why he takes them off in the hotel. Not because he’s trying to keep quiet.

Ricardo Alanis

My wife once asked me what the best film I’ve seen was. I told her there’s a difference between favorite and best. This one is near both but is hands down the best film I’ve seen. There’s a few films I’ve seen the first time in theaters and knew they would be the best picture Oscar winner and this one of them along The Departed, Parasite, and American Beauty. Just a masterpiece.

Jack Burton

The bug in the money is in a stack of one's because you wouldn't want to cut a hole in a stack of 100's.

I love this film, one of my all time favourites. Simone's thoughts on the film are very similar to how I often sounded when talking about it to (/at) friends. I'd recommend a rewatch at some point. I love the monologues throughout, especially along the Tommy Lee Jones plotline. An absolute work of art.

Jim Frykman

Haha! How crazy is it that the intro was Simon was telling a story about a dream.

Garrett Mazzuca

Gotta recommend Hell or High Water. Also a great movie with a similar setting

JoeySnowyNoey

To me this movie wanted to get across the harsh reality of life that we don't often see in movies. Evil people often win and those trying to do good don't get the guy a-lot of times. It's a reminder of the world we live in and I think it's a reminder of how much little time we have and that we should cherish each moment we do have because we don't know when we will be gone. I love the moment when Aton gets hit by the car and it's one of the most important moments of the movie because it shows that even the most competent people can't think of everything, and life effects everyone in the same way. Aton had everything under control but even him couldn't see what was coming in that moment. Brilliant storytelling.
