      Anton is a black void, it is the nothingness that makes him terrifying.
      Joker and Walter have character, reason, witz, and purpose. Anton is doesnt seem to have any emotion, just does wjat he has to do regardless of consequences.
      I think of the scene where he just stares into the Television, no metaphorical reflection, and empty void of where a soul is supposed to be.

  • @DngrDan
    @DngrDan Před 4 měsíci +3

    I'm reading the book and his death is a little different in some notable ways. Anton monologues a bit longer and seems to fuck with Wells to a higher degree, mentally torturing him. The most disturbing part is how his death is specifically written.. The moment he knows it's coming, Wells raises his hand up to "fend off the unfendable", meaning a shotgun slug straight to the face. McCarthy says something along the lines of "all his memories, everything Carson Wells was - his first communion, his mother's face, a child's body by a roadside in a foreign country - was plastered against the wall behind where he sat." Brutal.

  • @dumbwithmilan
    @dumbwithmilan Před rokem +32

    Did you notice the single tear that came out of Chigurh’s left eye? This was after he killed Wells. Maybe, for a second, Anton was questioning his sanity. He didn’t get why Carson said “Do you know how crazy you are?”. Keeping Carson alive would have been easier for Chigurh to get to Moss. But since he killed him, he chose to threaten Carla instead. It’s not in this video since it was shortened, but it was during the phone call with Moss.

It shows a kind of juxtaposition that while Anton is sadistic hes also annoyed that Carson is not fearful of his own death nor of Chigurh its rather more of an unpleasant circumstance he would rather avoid.
