Re: No Country for Old Men
The scene where Moss first discovers the crime scene and then the one where the dog chases him are two of the best paced pieces of filmmaking I have ever scene.

It is interesting to me that faced with the randomness and indifference of the universe, Moss acts like he has some say, some agency in how things come out and attempts (and ultimately fails, randomly) to face it head on, while the sherrif is always declining to act (he's always saying he'd rather not do something in the movie: ride that one horse, meet with the FBI agents, etc etc) and just going along for the ride until he makes the decision to walk into the hotel room and what he believes to be his sure death. I don't know if the movie is trying to say something about how to chose between these two options.

Not a word, but a sentence or statement:

All these things he saw and did not see.

Re: No Country for Old Men
Just seen it tonight (just out today here). The best Coen's brothers movie since quite long... & Javier Bardem is immense as a totally mad cold nonsensed psychopath... it should win a few Oscars on 24th February.
