Re: No Country for Old Men
It looks like a mash-up of Blood Simple and Fargo, which is a very very good thing. I've been pimping this movie to all my friends ever since the trailer was released. Javier Borden and Josh Brolin look like they're going to tear up this movie. Brolin especially, since he seems to have started with a pretty-boy status and has lately been turning in some amazing performances.
Similar to Jeff Bridges, he's the kind of actor I wrote off until one specific role. Big Lebowski was mine for Bridges, and oddly enough, Planet Terror was mine for Brolin. It's also interesting how Coen brothers tend to do this to various actors. Goodman, Clooney, and others all get mad props for their roles in Coen films.
