"Why are you watching No Country For Old Men clips when you should be working?"
"I don't know...my mind wanders."
Had you recently been to the #grangergloryhole
I'm doing exactly that.
Even in the contest between man and steer the outcome is not certain. That line is absolutely pure McCarthy, what a writer.
I am almost certain that line is not from the book. But it sounds so McCarthy-esque, I had to check, which is a testament to the Coen Brothers' ability to adapt for the screen.
@@BenMoranFilms what you making him look like a fool for?
@@BenMoranFilms Call it
Issue, not outcome
@michael boultinghouse You just don't get it. Never will I suppose.
I've always thought the steer story foreshadowed what happens to Chigurgh when he leaves Carla Jean's house. Him getting hit by a car has the same outcome as the guy who shot the steer. He has a broken bone and cannot raise his arm.
"The outcome is not certain."
Yea you missed the point.
@@NefastusJonesSchrodinger's victor.
Tommy Lee Jones (himself raised in west Texas) was amazed at Kelly Macdonald. She passes completely as a west Texas girl. I was as shocked as anyone when I first found out she was from Scotland.
Scottland!! She was amazing.
Old British accents are what American accents evolved from. So lots of things cross over actually.
They almost are the same accent
@@lastEvergreen Yep. I have some friends from Scotland and the only American accent they can really do is a southern/country one. They LOVE Texas too. I take them to get Tex-Mex whenever they visit.
Yep, I didn't even recognize her from the Scottish classic "Trainspotting" the accent was so different
I love sheriff Bell consoling himself, grabbing his own arm, as he tells Moss wife his mind wanders. He’s scared of what they’re dealing with and can’t even hide it.
He knows they are looking for someone killing people with a cattle airgun. A good cop may pretend he's confused even when he knows exactly what he's talking about. It lowers the other person's guard.
Yeah, but in this case Bell is genuinely scared, and I believe his emotions are shown in earnest. The whole movie is about his fears. Fear of the killer, fear of modern crime and its sheer violence, fear of the future, fear of his own mortality. One of my all time favorite characters.
@@MrJrFish "It's not that I'm afraid of it. I always knew you had to be willing to die to even do this job..."
@@ubiquitousdiabolus exactly. It it could also be his subconscious at work. One evening while he is almost asleep and his mind is free, the connection will come and he will raise up with a start
"He can take all comers". What a great little line.
Even more great since it turned out to be false. He got killed like an idiot
@@vashthestampede3459 So therefore, anybody murdered is and idiot? Have you ever been shot at like a bullet strike upon your windshield?
well she probably didn't mean he could solo a Mexican hit squad
@@vashthestampede3459 It wasn't his fault though. The mother in law unintentionally gave up information to the Mexicans that they used to find Moss.
@@BleachCowboy2016 She did. She really did. That's what's so special about the scene, the faith, loyalty, dedication she had for him.
She has such a good and cute accent. Never would have even realized that she is Scottish.
It sounds natural to you? She's keeping her voice soft which hides it a bit, but she's doing that "keep the airway open" thing that people always do when trying to force a southern accent. Kind of grating really.
@@mistermonologue2442 I don't hear alot of southern accents. Perhaps your right.
She's a Scot?! Whoah! Perfect Southern accent.
She does an awesome Irish accent too. Mrs Schroeder on Boardwalk Empire. Though I guess that’s easier (than the American southern accent) if you’re from the UK.
Believe it or not a southern accent is closer to their dialect than any other NA English dialect.
This scene always got to me. Like he was bringing up the story to her, because deep down he'd already figured out what the murder weapon was. Something that can blast off door locks and never leave any trace of bullets either. Just the fact that, by intuition, he'd already figured out the killer's mind without any realization was what made me want to see him come face to face with Anton.
But life isn't like that.
In the book, basically this is arc of the story. Ed Tom coming to grips with a pure sociopath, and just trying to make sense of that.
Sometimes it is. Life is filled with interesting surprises. There is no futility - all that matters is what you do (not just in response, but in consideration and planning) when such events occur. Therein lies the glory.
@@LloydWaldo He's a psychopath. Just a psychopath.
@@LloydWaldoA true sociopath is Tony Soprano. A true Psychopath is Anton Chigurh.
He didn't
Tommy Lee Jones was born looking 72 years old.
wouldn''t have him any other way
He solved the mystery of the missing bullet without even realising it
No I think he totally knew that's what anton use sir
I think the reason he told that story is BECAUSE he had figured it out.
Anyone with even childish levels of cognitive capabilities knows the differences of a bullet-wound and a short insert.
@@JonathanXLindqviust oh no cringe
@@JonathanXLindqviust You probably specialize in short inserts, not only in length, but also duration.
He knows in the back of his mind that an airgun is involved in the whole deal, but he's at the same time terrified of meeting a man capable of using it on people. That's why he progressively decides to quit more and more as the situation unfolds. He knows his times are gone and he can't deal with modern crime.
I like characters like Ed Tom Bell. He's got both strengths and weaknesses.
He's got the raw talent of a really good detective. His mind "wanders" because he's constantly unconsciously looking for clues and connections.
But he never could be that because, to paraphrase the opening, he's not willing to say "Okay, I'll be part of this world."
"My mind wanders". One of my favorite lines from the movie. That and "he's got some hard bark on him".
every spoke word is this film is worth the price of admission
I liked the book's version of the sheriff realizing it was a cattle-gun better. He asks his deputy about them and then doesn't elaborate any further. The deputy then gets it a moment later and replies with "I wish you hadn't asked me that."
Wendell is also Miller in The Assination of JesseJames by the coward, Robert Ford...
it's amazing we live in the same country, speak the same language, but i can't understand a word he said.
Which side of this country you live in?
I don't know... My mind wanders.
my too
my so go to response when i'm asked why i say the things i say
Kelly Macdonald from Trainspotting to Old Country. I love her sooo much! Shes such a great actor.
His mind's not wandering at all...he's talking about the big picture.
fyi this was filmed at what is now the Knights Inn, 1152 N Grand Avenue, Las Vegas, New Mexico. Looking at the Google Street View in 2020, the "restaurant parking only" sign is still painted on the window and the "motel restaurant open" outdoor sign is still there.
This was a really good movie! I had to watch it a couple times before I really began to appreciate the nuances throughout. Each actor was on their A-Game!
The most original thing about the two movies No Country and Fargo is that they use the characters' accent as a cover. They give the characters accents that are most often portrayed with lower intelligence. Then suddenly they say something so intelligent and philosophically undeniable it blows your mind.
She was fantastic, she deserved an academy award for her performance!
Her? What about Him?
Lol what? Not at all.
She was better as Margaret Thompson
@@pangolothian ummm... Have you seen the scene with her and Anton when she refuses to call the coin flip???
@@whywelovefilm7079 I've seen the movie 3 times. Of any and all actors/actresses I really wish they had cast her differently. Not a fan of her character or how she was played whatsoever. Loved literally everything else besides her casting. Just a matter of opinion.
I was shocked when I found out that she was a foreign girl. She played the part of a West Texas girl perfectly.
I love everything about this girl
you mean Margaret Schroeder?
@NoTheEarthIsntFlat Kelly Macdonald was nude in Trainspotting, when she was 19 no less.
@@christophercremo3020 dam. missed that. yeah she was Nucky Thomas' housekeeper then wife. in Country for Old men she plays a fiercely loyal pretty wife. very attractive qualities in a girl
Such a shame her talent was totally wasted in the last Line of Duty 😬
@NoTheEarthIsntFlat Titties man... Titties!
She’s so beautiful.
The dialogue from Tommy Lee Jones are the best parts of this movie. Acting at its best.
They really are. And if you're from West Texas. . .its difficult to describe how uncanny it is. . .our culture is not one easily imitated out here, its different, its weird. And its difficult to understand for people not from here. Makes what the Coen brothers did even more impressive.
That sad half-smile when he says “My mind wanders”…
Sad this girl had to die for refusing to flip the coin,but she stood up to chigurh which makes her even more amazing,the book was more detailing than the movie!
I think by killing her without a coin toss is the reason he got in the car accident. It went against the law that he follows and he acted on his own accord
@@viciousKev You said it. He broke the rule he followed and it led him to that.
@@viciousKev Wow! Interesting....never pieced that together. Thx! I need to read the book.
Lewellyn didn't give him the money, so he murders his wife. Anton keeps his promises
@@MrJrFish In the novel, Chigurh also recovers and returns the cash back to the original person that hired him.
This movie has amazing acting!
For a Scottish woman, Kelly nails that southern accent
Sometimes I catch myself talking to someone about the way that things used to be, kind of like Ed does -- it really doesn't have to do anything with them, I just don't know how to deal with the fact that I'm too old to adapt to the change in the world anymore.
I often feel the same way. I’m 49. How things change so rapidly, often for the worse.
@@johnreed7440 Funny, in the scene where Ed Tom Bell is talking to his uncle Ellis, Ellis makes the point the although Ed is convinced that the world has become too brutal, it actually has always been this way
The world I grew up in no longer exists. I'm trying not to greve over it's disappearance. It would help if today's world wasn't so alien.
@@redetrigan
That scene actually rattled me quite a bit. Could easily have been filmed using my father and me, both of us former lawmen ourselves. He lived out his last years alone in the high desert in New Mexico, in a place not unlike Ellis' homestead here.
'...what you've got is nothin' new...'
I love it she caught him in his white lie in there next convo over the phone!
"Well, it's true that it's a story.."
Sheriff, this is for ordering customers only, if you don't order food you need to get the hell out 😂
no restaurant for old man too i guess! :(
Had a great time watching this film
Great acting. Great film 🎥👍🇬🇧
Great gruff voice!
Love this movie
Thank you for the explaination there, Tommy Lee, I was wondering what was going on with that feller.
lemme know when you guys realize the stray bullet talked about in this scene is the car that hits Chigur at the end of the movie ;)
🙋🏻♀️
tommy lee jones is thinking if i was 20 years younger
25 to 30.
Mind wanders my foot.
This isn't a movie it's a biopic about days and life's of Texans lol, I swear when I first saw this movie when certain lines would come up I would just automatically guess the responses because I'm weird like that. Anyway that I don't know response at the end always gets me it's a very real moment I find myself doing it a lot at times. Using a story or recalling past events to make a point as it pertains to that particular situation is a very Texan thing to do it's an easier way of articulating your point. Getting lost in the conversation is real too even as he veers off topic it's still on the point, she looks almost a little confused and terrified as if he's trying to make another point. But no lol his mind has just gone to another place
The only comedic relief in the whole movie.
She is perfect in this movie.
I told a young lady this exact same story one time. She interrupted me and said "Sir, this is a Supercuts!"
thanx
1:53 -- His mind didn't wander, he was telling the truth...since Chigurh uses captive bolt gun to stun his victims...
thx sherlock
He was trying to spare her having to think about her husband meeting the same fate
It don't stun them buddy
@@jakemac1396 After it happens, they don't move for a good long while. Same basic principle, just a longer wait time for movement.
@Masster Gunnz A large point of the movie is that the sheriff thinks things are getting worse and he's worrying he isn't man enough to deal with the modern lawlessness, but when he visits his uncle, he tells him about his great uncle being shot dead on the porch of his house by outlaws, and remarks this is no country for old men - and has never been. Killing cattle used to be more of a contest, but we got civilized and now have an air gun to avoid messing about with a maul. But the cattle ends up just as dead, and it is not any less violent... and if you screw up, you're still in a paddock with several hundred pounds of pissed off livestock. Anton Chigurgh is walking around with a modern, more "humane" execution method in his hand, but he's using it for old fashioned butchery. Nothing has changed, especially people, and this has never been a country for old men.
Thing is Charlie used a FMJ bullet instead of a hollow point to cut costs.
Underrated comment
Not sure about back then but using a Hollow Point now days can warrant excessive forces Vs. a FMJ. Many Depts. view Hollow Point Ammo as Unauthorized Ammunition.
Great actress beautiful woman
you can't stop what's coming. It ain't all waitin' on you!
We're you in Trainspotting? Would you tell me if you were?
Is it weird that this line rings in my head, whenever I need some inspirational motivation to do some shit against the odds?
I'll always wonder if there was anything she could have done differently to avoid get killed by Chigurh. I can't think of anything she could have done.
Hide abroad?
@@pragmaticpuppy2715 I agree, if she knew how it would end... but just playing it straight: she doesn't even know Chigurh has promised to hunt her down and kill her. She doesn't know what's coming. Her husband never warned her, and neither did the sheriff. Of course, the sheriff doesn't know Chigurh would come after her either. Just sad.
@@billt8504 , are you sure he really did kill her? Not everyone that came into Anton's path met with death.
Colin Montgomery he checks his shoes for blood when he exits the house it’s safe to say she got pummelled
@@colinmontgomery1956 I read the book. He killed her.
'why are you telling me this?'
It'll become relevant later in the movie :DDD
No country for old men indeed. He feels lost because they don't slaughter steers the same way they used to.
What he's really sad about is that his analogy doesn't work anymore because it refers to an outdated mode of slaughter.
That device has been around since the early 1900s, it's actually one of the few things this movie gets wrong. It wasn't some new-fangled contraption.
Slaughterin beeves
Brilliant use of eyebrows..
Martial Arts student walked by a donkey tied to a gate. The donkey kicked him and hurt him badly.
A Martial Arts expert walked by the same donkey and tried to block the donkey's incoming kick but was still injured.
Then, the Martial Arts master walked by the donkey but stayed far enough away to be out of range of the donkey's kick.
"is that a true story?"
"... it is true that it's a story." LMAO
Why are you telling me that Sheriff? Because the audience wants to know about that device being used by Anton, ma'am.
she’s cute
His mind isn't wandering. It's trying to tell him how Chigur is killing his victims without a bullet. But the sheriff's too thick to listen even to himself.
@@TheGreatHorseradish True. Blew out a bunch of locks though.
Disagree that he’s “too thick.” He’s being unwillingly drug into an era where unspeakable atrocities are becoming increasingly common, and he just doesn’t want to see it.
I think he had already figured it out, or was as he was relaying the Walzer story.
@@TheGreatHorseradish
That's the case that had him thinking about it, though.
I know how the sheriff feels.
By the way: I would love to see a film where anton chigurh gets his comeuppance.
yes.
"why u tellin me that shit head" said carla jean

You know Charlie Walser's, got that place out east of Sanderson? Well, you know how they used to slaughter beeves, hit 'em right there with a maul, truss 'em up and slit their throats? Here, ol' Charlie's got one all trussed up, all set to drain him and the beef comes to, starts thrashing around. Six hundred pounds of very pissed-off livestock. If you'll excuse the... Well... Charlie grabs the gun there, shoot the damn thing in the head, but with all the swingin' and the thrashin', it's a glance-shot, ricochets around, comes back and hits Charlie in the shoulder. You go see Charlie, he still can't pick up his right hand for his hat... The point bein', that even in the contest between man and steer, the issue is not certain.
Imagine my surprise when I looked her up on the web and saw she ain't even American. She does that lil ol sweet thang country girl to perfection. Never seen anybody better at it excpet maybe a few of those gals on Grand Old Opry but that's what they really are. Kelly is from Scotland,
And the accents are very similar, Katie Scarlett. czcams.com/video/YSOYTFw0JaA/video.html
@@crimony3054 They ARE similar. Vivien Leigh was so good in that part. David Selznick screen tested so many for the role. I never knew her character's name was Katie Scarlett until just now even though I've watched the film time and again. You have a sharp ear for detail. Thomas Mitchell lays it on thick and I missed it. Whereas Scarlett's accent is set farther East near Atlanta, our Kelly as Carla Jean nails the West Texas version. In Boardwalk Empire Kelly puts on a flawless Irish accent. Oh, Carla Jean, you made that film for me.
Because that’s kind of one of Anton’s tools
Df is in those ketchup bottles?
Why you telling me dat sherriff?
The only thing that was missing from this epic movie is a deep philisophical dialoge between this sherrif and Anton Chigurgh, settled by a coin toss.
you can hear the british accent lol
Walmart employee
In any other movie this would be the scene where the Sheriff through casual small-town country-talk realizes the nature of the strange weapon the killer is using, puts the whole thing together, calls around for anyone who's sold a non-commercial use air-compressed cattle gun to a civilian, gets the serial number, tracks down the killer and saves the hero just before he's done fer.
Not here though. Just an old man too incredulous to move to act.
This part is great talking about how life isn't an action movie in reality anybody who gets hurt or shot it most likely kills or cripples them for the rest of their life. The human body is very frail and an accident waiting to happen talk to any doc and they will have this opinion.
isnt that a womans name lewellen
Is Tommy Lee Jones a good actor?
YES
Is it me or does she look like Sheldon's mom?
This scene actually supports the theory that Anton doesn't exist -- is only the figment of Bell's imagination as he (an old man) tries to come to terms with the death of Moss after it's all over...
She's reet petite

As much as I like this movie, in my view, Curtis's is totally wasted. He takes a tertiary role, with no impact at all on any outcome. He is basically a lame duck here, but the two main characters are superb.

Its unreal, maybe surreal, but I really feel like Ed Tom now days. Every single time I try to illustrate a point to someone young, they have NO capacity to understand. Or I don't have the capacity to communicate with them properly. I dunno. But there is a disconnect that is different than generations before us. The old are no longer the same people as the young, just a few years ahead. We are different people and we live in a different world. . .and its no country for old men. . .
