Review of No Country for Old Men (2007) by Mahmus — 25 Sep 2020
A modern western classic.
Everyone always talks about how good Javier Bardem is, and rightly so. He is terrifying. But I wanted to mention just how good this movie is on a technical level. The editing, the sound design, is all masterful.A modern western classic.

But I wanted to mention just how good this movie is on a technical level.
The editing, the sound design, is all masterful.
Roger Deakins cinematography is, of course, gorgeous.
The lack of music is perfect.
This movies has possibly my favorite scene transition of all time, in which a shot of coin on the ground disloves almost seamlessly into an establishing shot of the desert.
It makes my jaw drop every time.
I could watch this movie all day.
I love eveything about it.
