- I do not own anything in this video, it is merely for entertainment purposes.
I recently watched this movie and thought it was quite amazing and suspenseful. I really enjoyed this scene (among many others) but wasn't able to find an HD version with subtitles on RUclips, so I thought it would be nice to share it with the community.
Javier steals the scene, but the cashier deserves just as much credit. He seems so much like every old timer I’ve seen working at gas stations in Texas, I forget he’s just an actor. He nailed it.
I agree. I felt so bad for the cashier, throughout the whole scene I was like "Oh god, please don't kill him".
@@OfficerRichardGrimes Totally agree. Just a normal man in an abnormal situation. He handled it better than most would have.
He was like a deer in the headlights. Looked like he was genuinely pissing himself with fear.
It’s team work. Bardem’s counterpart pulled off an incredible performance too. They complemented each other brilliantly. One in a million chance.
that's what happens when you have true master directors behind the actors, something 99% of the streaming shit we see today is completely devoid of
This is what introverts think will happen if they make conversation with a random.
this is how it feels
Actually the opposite.... If anyone tries to socialize with me with any form of basic-ness I want them to choose either heads or tails.
You don't know what you're talking about, do you?
Yes
help me
After that moment, the old man was cured from small talk.
demo2382 he learned a lesson haha
I like your ninja gaiden!!
Lol yeah, no joke. I wouldn't say a word to anyone else who came in my store
He knew also not to ask anyone if they were from Dallas...
Never ask anyone the weather, never accept quarters, never travel to dallas
What's frightening about the scene is that Anton isn't even disappointed by the coin toss. Honestly, he seems more relieved and impressed by the guy's correct call. Truly exemplifies the idea that Chigurh sees himself as a force entirely dictated by fate.
Javier Bardem is amazing.👏👏
You'll never hear Anton Chigurh say "You know what, I like you. Let's do the coin toss again, maybe you'll get it right."
I thought this it's like he's relieved he won lol
Till realizes at the end of the movie he is just flesh and bone like the rest of us
Which brings me to the question of whether, had the owner not been curious, he would have been spared (I mean the coin toss) by Chigurh.
I love how the old man picks his words carefully enough not to trigger an outburst from him it’s like they’re both playing along on some tightrope yet both trying to keep their cool it’s so interesting
Yes, I agree, you articulated that well.

So underrated. Hahahah
Legitimately wheezed at this.
😂😂😂😂
I am so glad they respected the audience's ability to read between the lines by not saying something like "that coin just saved your life" at the end, like many movies would have.
i'm glad too.

@@dogsandyoga1743 Lmao why is everyone in this comment section such an asshole
But you just couldn’t stand not explaining it, could you?
His voice. The calmness. Death can't be personified any better.
he's not the personification of death
Anton Chigurgh is the personified of fate not death. He is ethical he have twisted moral code He serves the coin coin means probability Which is outcome is inevitable. He kills because the persons he kill must be/had to be dead cause unbiased coin chooses outcome.
@@2d4e he is the angel of death
@@2d4e I think that he wants to be recognised for others like a legend or death itself in the film
What about the his hair? That hair don't scares me
Javier Bardem is a phenomenal actor, this scene had me on the edge of my seat the first time I watched it
its getting old now. the first couple hundred comments were kinda funny but now its just annoying seeing you in every comment section. take a break my guy
I love you mass commentor ❤
You are inevitable. There is no sanctuary from you.
Honestly, i rather have this guy comment everywhere than that chump Ray Mak.
The old man acting sure had me impressed tho
*"Girl's voice get higher-pitched when speaking at someone they love"*

You like hands
Wow look a jojos account posting something unfunny. What’s new
I can’t locate the funnny
A weebo struggling with girls? Get the fuck out of town!
I like how, despite being a complete sociopath, Anton adheres to this strict observance of the "coin toss". He seems genuinely happy for the man when he correctly guesses heads, almost as if he doesn't believe himself to be responsible for his own actions, and is simply carrying out the will of the universe.
Anton really gives off this body language that’s like “well, time for the coin toss. I’ve gotta do it. Let’s get this over with.”
@@dinglepringle1380 He's like this Hannibal Lecter kind of person who sees a perceived indignity he'll go about seeing it corrected his own way.
@@blessedamerican3541 Thats not true at all you should look up the definitions smh.
I know right, but we see that in real life people who commit crimes in the name of religion, not only murders but crimes which have no constitutional adherence.
@@sfs8730 where did religion come from? Also atheists are responsible for some of the worst massacres in human history.
this scene is so good. it shows how psychotic Antoine is. The way he gets intensely serious and puts the guys life in to a coin toss, and then once the man wins he gets lighthearted. He goes from being willing to murder to being playful in an instant.
What's scary about Anton throughout the movie is he never quickens his pace. He takes his time and does everything in a slow and methodical manner.
The fact that he was taking his time to chat and then decide whether he plans to kill the old man is really what puts you on edge.
A series of forensic psychoanalysts watched movies to determine which movie killer was the most realistically a psychopath. Anton was who they chose as the most realistic.
@@moblinmajorgeneral dexter is the same
Psychopathic* There's a difference. Sorry for sounding like a nerd.
@@redfill68 dexter isn't psychopathic... he's sociopathic... he enjoys the killing that he inflicts on bad ppl because of a code that he leart by his father... he was broken since he was a child but he does share psychopathic traits but that doesn't mean he's a psychopath as he doesn't kill innocent ppl or civilians
Mom: "It's time for bed now."
Me: "Now is not a time."
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bruh
😆😆😆
God I hope you're not 40 years old lol
Underrated
This scene feels like death himself going to a gas station store and talking to a random mortal lol
Well, the guys who directed this movie like putting the grim reaper in some of their movies. Anton Chigurh fits that bill really well, since he chooses some of his targets randomly, is as silent as a ghost, leaves little to no traces

@@oilers_fan_77 indeed it is, but you stfu anyway

I think the reason he was saying stfu is because this comment is cringe. Yeah we get it, “this movie is good. Michael Bay is bad.” That’s why we are here. 🙄
The way the cashier stares at the unfolding wrapper is so real. It's those small, mundane things we tend to notice when we're overcome with anxiety and uncertainty. What a nice touch.
Yeah, Anton was death gripping that wrapper.
I wonder how many wrappers they went through before they found the one that would crinkle just right.
I love how the wrapper uncoils like a snake. It signifies the turn of the conversation as anton gets ready to kill the cashier.
@@bigdobiz7378Yeah, beautiful point. The creeping unraveling, representing the palpable tension in the room
@@bigdobiz7378how does it signifie that😂 I swear y’all are worse than teachers trying to find a meaning behind every poem

No

But what about the lucky coin? It took 22 years to do this worth while acting
@@yourviewyouropinion9136 the actual coin was about 48 years old when this was filmed.
But the coin is so good at it's craft that we were all convinced that it was 22.
I think the makeup artist deserves a lot of credit also
😂😂😂😂
I think we’re all missing who the real winner is here. Yea the old man gets to live BUT Anton got a full tank of gas and a pack of peanuts for a quarter… THATS A DEAL!
That's a steal.

Bcaz every bit of the whole scene matters a lot.
Fun fact: Javier stated in an interview that the coin toss scene was entirely improvised and he would have actually killed the actor playing the clerk if he said tails over heads. Bravo, Javier!
method acting at its finest
This is the moment Javier became Anton.
He shouldn't be acting, he belongs in a criminally insane mental institution!
That's a really fun fact.
Funny fact indeed

@@giovannifalso6342 back then. Yes
That's his point. He hates small talk and was basically saying the guy wasted his life away not amounting to anything better than marrying into what he currently has.
@@benjaminvolesky1653 The main thing isn't that he hates small talk, although that's a part of it. He didn't like that the guy took notice of his licence plates
Here after the News. Rest well in Peace, Cormac McCarthy...
I find it interesting how that "well done" doesn't sound angry or disappointed (like being upset that he didn't get to kill him). He sounds genuinely impressed that he made the lucky call that saved his life.
Ikr, like "Damn GG brother"
Since he is allowing fate to determine whether one deserves to live or not. The man picking the right side relinquishes the idea that he perhaps should die. The universe has told Anton that the man deserves the life he has chosen to live. In some way he may enjoy the idea of being proven wrong, a learning experience for an insane man. Also Anton himself would prefer not to succumb to death. He is sharing a strange kind of sympathy in knowing that the man has won his life. even if the old man is completely unaware of what he was about to lose.
He’s a sociopathic psycho.
Wow you nailed it with this comment! Good observation. I thought the same thing.. he was like MAN put that quarter somewhere where you'll never lose it!, you crazy? Haha
he sounds relieved
the fact that he took the time to learn about the cashier’s life then put that life into a coin toss. also i love how he creeped the cashier out so much that he doesn’t even realize he just got away with paying for gas and a 69 cent candy bar for just a quarter.
Would you ask for it after that?
He may be old but he ain't no fool.
Do you not realize that a U.S. 1958 quarter is silver, or 90% silver…. So that makes it worth roughly $4.00 or so…. By today’s standards.
@@scottsmith5623 Nice.
@@scottsmith5623 Do you not realize that in 1980 it was not "today's standards?" lol. No idea what case you're trying to make. The guy clearly didn't pay for his goods.
@@scottsmith5623 bro what 🤣🤣🤣🤣 theyre not living in 2021 so how would that even
This is the most terrifying scene I've ever witnessed. The psychological manipulation of the store owner is so much you feel like you're the one standing behind the counter.
Watching this i felt like i was right in the store hiding in the back crapping my pants.
But crazy thing is someone pointed out that throughout this film. There is no drama music. Which makes everything more intense.
2:41 even the wrapper is scared shitless.
Well you have to do a lot more watching if this is your top scene....
@@franciscojaviersangerman698 shut up
I love when the man says he has to close at dark while pointing outside at broad daylight…He was in a true panic and didn’t know what he was saying just like Anton said.
Wow very observant
The old guy is an awesome actor. I could feel he was terrified as hell. During the whole scene I could hear his inner voice saying: "oh god, please don't kill me, please don't kill me!".
funny i saw it more like a deer in headlights, he was more or less in shock because it was an unusual social encounter but i dont think he ever understood he was being threatened.
@@Frostiedkdk no his body language says fear he even made up a closing time by saying now thats because the peculiar he was talking to was giving off eery and ominous vibes...listen to his tone of voice its all seriousness
That's Andy Griffith. He is very famous for his television show.
@@Spiderfan1989 wha no it’s not
@@Spiderfan1989 i think you mean Gene Jones
I love how Anton becomes almost playful after the coin toss.
He really lightened up on the guy once fate decided he should live.
4:22 of Anton Chigurh
5 seconds of Javier Bardem
I like how he subtly let's the old man know that a quarter just about took his Life..
"It's your lucky quarter.."(This quarter just saved your life)
"Or it'll get mixed in with the others and become just a coin... Which it is.."(You about lost your life over a quarter)
It added to the feeling of intense relief for the viewer. The opposite to extreme tension of the moment right before. A masterpiece of screenwriting.
I also enjoyed the "well done!"
@@AnxiouslyGaming LMAO
No one ever talks about how the acting of the old man is incredible! He did an amazing job, on par with Javier Bardem.
"If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it - then I can achieve it.".
Definitely not on par with Javier Bardem, but still a great job
The moment he realizes this guy is both crazy and serious. . and he'd better call it and stop asking questions. He knows. The actor shows it on his face -- Phenomenal.
@@errwhattheflip In the scene itself? Definitely on par with Bardem. We're not comparing their whole careers lol
@@kyrrodi9498 I'm not talking about their whole careers. Just the scene itself
Anton choking on peanuts after hearing he married into a family just to run a gas station for his life is hilarious
🤣🤣
Makes an average of 60k a year. Besides that, he probably married his wife for other reasons, he said they lived elsewhere until they retired 4 years ago and took over her father's store
@@HomeschoolVouchers probably about 16-18k by 1980s inflation. Would be roughly 60k today
i doubt him choking on the peanuts had anything to do with the story. that man is in a world of his own. he doesnt rrally hear what other people say.
@UCf6kgUjkptbN8n8yUnpP1eQ prove it you degenerate
His voice alone would scare the shit out of me, let alone that hairdo.
Agreed friendo
That hairstyle would do for me
His pale like face also does it for me
When they decided what kind of haircut Anton should have, Javier Bardem said "Now I won't get laid for two months."
lmao
Imagine living your whole life peacefully, try to make even to the end of the month, you are getting old, but you still work at a goods store in the middle of nowhere, just for your life to depend on a coin toss.
Well, all of our lives are really guided by just that: the forces of chance…a flip of a coin.
@@mightguy123456, well, a coin toss where each day you have 99,99% chance to guess right, slowly decreasing the more you age or the situation you're in.
Anton’s entire point was that this dude’s life and all of our lives are determined by random happenstance. The coin toss it just a metaphor and Anton believes he himself has been deemed the arbiter of life or death.
@@ShadyRonin Random has always been my favorite kind of happenstance.
Every day… it more or less does.
Such an amazing performance. You can see how he is losing his patience with every word the old man says. He just kept his anger deep inside and gave the old lucky man his chance to live.
Love the way the old man realized something really bad was happening then when the peanut wrapper started unfolding.
Goofy aaahh emojis
But anyways, that's a good point
😂😂😂😂
Man, that emoji really ruins an otherwise decent comment
Anyone notice how his mood seemed to brighten up once he found out that the merchant guessed correctly?
It's like the "Well done" was legitimate and he de-activated his psycho-mode.
I absolutely agree, that is exactly what happened. He relaxed the tone in his voice, facial expression and body language. Most of all he relaxed the intense energy/vibe he was oozing. Brilliant actor and amazing scene.
he was proud of him.
Even the sound of the coin kind of giving off a sound of release like the tension was just broken
His psycho-mode came back for a brief moment when the owner was about to put the coin in his pocket though
Yeah, that was interesting, what was that all about?
This actor playing the gas station attendant did an amazing job. To hold his own in a scene like this is really incredible for such a small role. This is pretty much my favorite scene from any movie.
Every one in this movie even the kids at the end did a good job
This is my favorite movie. Don't mix this movie with the others or it'll become just another movie. Which it is.
Gene jones has been in many movies. This is a good one you should see Dementia also he likes playing mostly in western movies. He was in Tarantino's the hateful eight. He played Sweet Dave.

The acting in this scene is flawless, both of them speak in a calm monotone voice but you can sense the tension between them rise slowly but surely. One of the best movies of that time.
The most accurate portrayal of a psychopath in movie history.
Kopiovastaava its your lucky quarter.DON'T put it In your pocket.or it will get mixed UP with the other money and become just a nother coin.,witch it is....then turned and walked away.so fucking cool was Antoine surger
TDK's Joker was noice too
I think the most realistic portrayal of a psychopath was by Casey Affleck in 'The Killer Inside Me.'
@nick m. Lou was more of a sociopath
@nick m. I may be wrong, but I always saw Lou as someone who was definitely capable of certain emotions and fitting in to an extent, and while we see him going to extreme lengths for the sake of his job, he doesn't particulaly seem to enjoy the pain people are in. He is however, almost completely indifferent to it; he just doesn't care, which I think aligns more with a sociopath.
I was sure old man was gonna get murdered when I watched this movie.
That shit was anxiety inducing intense dagger.
@albert fish I had no idea about the coin toss and kinda scared shitless.
It's more scary to think what could've happened than what actually happened
@G E T R E K T 905 I meant nothing by it
He's so intimidated he even asked where he should put the coin after he won it lol.
I wonder if he can do anything to him if he refused to call the coin toss.....he can't kill him because he unknowingly hasn't accepted the wage of the outcome.
Outside of the story, distraction is a key tactic to underpaying the cashier for your candy bar.
Lol
I should try that someday

I love the shot of the wrapper slowly expanding. To me it was a visual cue that things are quickly getting out of hand for this clerk.
You were thinking to much into this when you typed that comment
I only saw it as Anton was clutching on to the wrapper really hard. Like he was tensing up. That's about it.
@@Hussman493Anton is always calm. Slow and calculated. I think the wrapper is a good visualization of the growing tension between the two. You cant see it on him but you can feel it, so the wrapper is the visualization of Antons growing desire to kill the clerk. But neither of us are incorrect since its subjective. Either way it communicated the same feeling to both of us, we just read it differently
- How much?
- Sixty-nine cents.
- And the gas?
- Twelve dollars.
* Chigurh puts money on the table *
- Good bye.
- Good bye sir.
* Chigurh departs; gas station owner watches him driving away; scene fades *
If it was actually realistic:
"How much?"
"Sixty-nine cents"
"Nice"
"Nice"
Chigurh leaves
- How much?
- Sixty-nine cents.
- And the gas?
- Twelve dollars
* Intense scene of Chigurh selling the quarter to the gas station's owner *
- Good bye.
- Good bye sir.
* Chigurh departs; gas station's owner watches their quarter, slowly realizing he never got payment for the gas *

@@grigorirasputin1101 Yes. No country for old stormtroopers.
I like how the coin means everything up until the clerk wins his life. Then it becomes "just another coin"
No, he stated that IF he got it mixed with the other, THEN it will become just another coin. For now, it is his lucky quarter, the one that bought him his life.
@@juanlaise1059 Then he said which it is.
Nice analysis....
@Juan Laise now that you word it like that I see the scene differently
@@juanlaise1059 even the killer stated it was just another coin. Even though he stated it was the clerk's lucky quarter. Cause if he gave YOU that quarter, it would be what? Just another coin. IMO.
There is NO WORDS to describe how incredible Javier Bardem is in that whole movie, and especially in that scene. It's per-fect, I would change nothing if I could.
Also, the supporting actor is an incredible dance partner. Man, I wanna watch the movie again.
Damn true
What a con. He convinced that poor old man to take
25 cents for his food and gas.
+Develan He was willing to pay for the gas but the old man was being nosy (friendly) which pissed him off. He is a HIT MAN not a cheap skate. Remember how he paid the kid to help him with this broken arm.
He came back and killed him too. When he opens the vent you see the change he paid with and the quarter has red stains on it.

When he says "well done"
It really sounds like him going in his head "oh shit!! he's a fucking luck bastard"
In his mind the guy lived his whole life on luck, so he might as well try to beat another test. He won the coin toss, Chigurh went "well, good for him, he gets to fight another day" which is hilarious considering he was the one going to kill him if he lost lol
@@rohunsaigal2576 Exactly, that's why he says, "you've been putting it up your whole life, you just didn't know it." When he says we'll done, it's to say he did it again. I think the really hilarious part is when he's walking away. He tells him not to put his now lucky coin in his pocket or it will become just another coin. "Which it is"
As if to say none of that matters.
Fucking luck bastard
I think there's a genuine sigh of relief in Chigurh's voice. He didn't want to kill him. Unfortunately it also seems to fill him with more belief in his view of the world, that the coin toss will always dictate a fair outcome, that there's some kind of hidden order to the randomness.

The moment Chigur snaps is when the shopkeeper asks about where he is from by looking at his licence plate. Chigur is supposed to be the tracker, the killer, the ghost who knows all about you when you don't know him. Suddenly a lowly shop keeper is trying to play that game in a small innocent way, by looking to see where Chigur's from, and it nearly cost him his life.

To be honest, this movie belongs to Javier Bardem. He steals every scene throughout the film.
Good American accent! I had no idea he was Spanish!
That’s why he won virtually every award imaginable for this performance. I count at least 25 that he won and an additional 4 in which he was nominated. I can’t imagine who he could’ve lost to, haha!

I agree. He is so damn good in this movie.
@Tamer Ciftci are you high or sumetin
Brilliant in every sense. Anton realizes that the gas station attendant could become a dangerous witness on his murderous trail. He therefore sets the attendant up in a deadly situation - while still holding to his deterministic, fate-abiding worldview.
I was afraid for the shopkeeper during this entire scene.
Great acting by the two!

This ladies and gentlemen is how you win a fucking Oscar. Still give me chills all these years later.
Sir?
I watched this movie for the first time last night. It was great.
🤦🏻♀️
First read the novel then watch the movie, it kinda gives you a good sense
Amen
Correctly predicts heads
Anton: Lisan Al Gaib…
The writing, directing, and editing are only surpassed by the acting. A complete tour de force in under 5 minutes.
İ dont think so. Everything is perfect here but even an irreguler editing would black out whole scene.
Wrong. The best part is the score.
tour de france dude
as a French guy i love when i see french expressions Like tour de force or rendez-vous nd what not kkkk
@@MegaOZX What?
The most I’ve ever lost in a coin toss are 3 Pokémon cards
Ouch
No wonder the shop owner was so nervous if those were the stakes
@@heskymarky XDDDD
@@emjan3429 haha why u mad, cry baby
Well next time you stand to lose everything. At least, if a man with that haircut approaches you with a coin toss.
I love the way Anton chokes on a peanut when he finds out the guy married into it.
What am I missing. Why did he choke. Was he surprised by it
@@barryselfon9023 No it's because Anton is laughing at the old man. The audacity of a man with nothing of his own possession questioning someone like Anton is what made him choke.
"You aint got shit to your name and you have the BALLS to question me? Either you're crazy, ignorant, or both."
@@barryselfon9023 i think he choked fr there and they left it cause it was like cherry for the pie
He wasn't even supposed to choke. It wasn't in the script. The actor choked out of script and they kept it in because it just worked.
@@thedirtinyoureye2133 That's correct.
Rest In Peace Cormac McCarthy
Chigurh: "How much?"

also, the video has 6.9M views.
@@adnansakib821 nice
@@palagyimario724 I’m sorry but you know what comes next
This shouldn’t have made me laugh as hard as it did
Its so crazy to think a Spanish actor achieved this level of acting in a language he didnt dominate, props to Javier.
"I could come back then..."
Super underrated line in the scene. Anton is basically saying he can close shop and end the conversation there, but he'll just revisit him at night and do the coin toss then. Guy is persistent as fuck.
He hadn't mentioned the coin toss at that point.
I read it as a gradual building of threat, that it took the owner a while to realise. The threat is what he implied between the actual spoken words: I could come back here when you've gone to bed, when it's dark, probably when he's wearing pyjamas so at even more of a psychological disadvantage, in a house in the middle of nowhere. "Why would you do that?"
[Not said]: To kill you.
who is underrating it?
Pretty much everyone who read the book or saw the movie understood what he meant, and the menacing subtlety is why people love the character. I need people to stop using the word 'underrated' out of obliviousness to how other people are rating things.
@@ninjachannel007 I think Tiger's comment shows that you're overestimating people's understanding..
I agree about "underrated" over use though. Along with "nobody's going to talk about.." when about a hundred other comments have already talked about something.
@@davidthomas9165 I think it’s people’s need to think they see more than others. Like the vidoes titled “25 things you missed in …”
We all understood it. We just don’t need constant validation from strangers to feel valued and appreciated.
The Gas Station attend is a sweet guy and the viewer spends the whole scene on edge hoping the psychopath doesn't kill him. Brilliant script, directing but most of all acting, sensational scene.
No he's a piece of s hit, he won't blabber like this with strangers ever again
The reason Anton got mad at him in the first place was the small talk. Anton believes that language should be to the point and concise The man has his morals
@Smarty Jonez
I also think Anton got pissed because the license plate was giving out clues of where he just came from
Чтобы так сыграть мало репетиций надо или до предела вжиться в роль, тренировать мимику, движение или быть таким по жизни.
I like how the tension is immediately evaporated once he wins the coin toss. Like the shop owner knows he deserves what he has now, and Chigurh knows it took everything for him to make that call. Guy went from a passive life drifter to a man with purpose
The lack of a score makes this scene so terrifying
There is one. Listen.
You're a bit deaf, aren't you?
I understood that reference.
Harry64278 the guy in the first comment thought there was no music/soundtrack in the scene, while there actually is. The soundtrack is just so well integrated with the scene that you don’t even notice it
@@Harry64278 watch the video again and remember the "You're a bit deaf, aren't you?" comment bc there is music at a certain point in the video
The scene that won him the Oscar.
Jack Lambert. Well deserved!
One of my favorite scenes in film ever

svfutbol20 my sentiments exactly.what you have is the most dosile meeting the most criminally insane.
svfutbol20 i dont this film is even watchable.
e d what?
Trollbi-Wan Kenobi i dont understand the film. It is too deep for me
Great movie. I still remember my buddy who hardly ever goes to the movies, telling me "that shit was fuckin epic. If you get the chance to see it, do it"
It’s a great movie. That’s how I felt when I first saw it. I didn’t think it would be this good. Definitely my favorite movie.
I just love how this man is eating these peanuts one at a time as he just completely terrifies this guy. And then when the coin toss is over, you can immediately see javier relax. That little look at the end is priceless.
don't trust anyone who eats peanuts one at a time!
Cashew nuts.
Hey monkey it was not him. He was told by the director so he can get rich and you will be emotional about shit 😅
Please analyse more 🤣
What business is it of yours what time he goes to bed?
Your comment made me think. I think he asked all those personal questions because the cashier first got his nose in his business by asking him about where he’s from
Anton: “I need to know what time I shall kill him in his sleep “
Obviously the question was meant to be intimidating and menacing.
What business was it of the owner to ask where he was from? Nunya Bizness. He started it
@@h.epennypacker2598 nunya is a very abo name
Javier Bardem is terrifying in this scene. Well deserved Oscar for his performance
What a kind and friendly individual.
Helped a confused old man learn to take decisions and even gifted him an unique coin for no reason.
We need more people like this guy.
Bardem is so brilliant in this role. You can sense Anton Chigurh has a psychopathic rage just underneath this veneer of calm order that is barely being kept in check.
I’ve been around people in real life with this kind of energy. Demon energy. Not often, but when I have, everything in me wants to instinctively put as much distance between me and them as possible as quickly as possible.
@Jesse Rochon I highly doubt they were really with it. Just by you saying "they had demon energy" 🤦♂️💀 no offense but you'd have no idea if a killer sat right in front of you bub
@@josiahgonzalez942 have you ever experienced actual demon energy? If not, then you don't really know what you're talking about. If you have, I'll give you some credence even if I disagree ok?

2:11 Anton's anger upon learning this man married into the gas station is just phenomenal
😂😂
He almost choked on a peanut.
@@frigidpony He literally did during filming, they kept it in.
go look it up if you don't believe me.
I don't get why that made him mad.
@@wilhelmbeaston8003 Because the man didn't earn it and it's pathetic in his eyes
They’re totally having an unspoken conversation whilst in conversation. Really love scenes like this bc it may seem ordinary but it’s far from it.
I love how Antone chokes and laughs when he states he married into it lol
I actually laughed out loud when he choked at that comment. Yeah....I was the only one.
he actually choked and that wasnt in the script so the producer decided to keep it
Alice Gibson @ 2:13
@Strainul Misterios lol
Fun fact, in the DVD commentary, he says that he legit choked on a peanut and the director decided to leave it in
The Candy wrapper has it's own IMDB page
it won the oscar
And this wins my vote for best comment in the thread.
Yall funny as fuck on here lol
It was up for auction on ebay. I almost bought it...lol
The wrapper symbolizes the interaction. Once Anton has been "seen" ( remember the office execution )as something more than an anonymous passer-through, the interaction must unfold according to rules like physics... he follows his rule, letting chance decide if he murders a witness to his passage. As he says elsewhere, the rule he followed brought him to this. Like the coin he is an unremarkable one of many, until noticed by someone. He arrived the same way the coin did. And now he's here.
The thing that makes this scene so frightening is the fact that it’s only the 2 of them for miles around and the old man can’t do anything but fear for his life. This is a paranoid person’s worst nightmare. The man can kill me and nobody would know for a few days or maybe weeks.
C'mon now business seems slow..... but weeks? Lol
Unless you're prepared to die, then you call the coin thankful for the adrenaline.
Joe Gutzz A few days, yes. Dunno about a few weeks, though.
I get what your saying, and you are right about the solitude and lonesome location, but no way on time. I would say a couple hours at most, and if it is indeed closing time, maaaaaybe the morning, but that's only if his wife ( he said we moved down here to run the store) didn't care he did not come home for dinner, but would def care he wasn't there in the morning. And even the loneliest middle of the nowhere gas stations get customers throughout the day/night. Someone would be by soon and find the body.
Except his wife, in the house right behind the gas station, who would notice when dark came and he hadn't come home? Lol
I didn't know about this movie until recently, I asked my mom about it and she told me it was a movie you could watch 100 times and not get sick of it.... My mom criticizes everything, for her to say that it must be a good movie
When you ask you're teacher "can I go to the toilet" instead of "may I"
I'm French so I don't understand the difference 😂could you explain?
@@MaratDr Can I = do i have the capacity. May I = do i have the permission. Il est vrai que nous n'avons pas cette nuance en français ;-)

"I don't know, can you?"

And put some gas in my car
This made me pick my ass up and go to the store after peanuts at 1:30AM.

That a classic comment .....too funny
Is it weird i watch this every now and again just to be entrenched in this amazing acting and chemistry?
Hands down, one of the best most stressful scenes I've ever watched.
Coming from the boots of tha walkin' man, himself.......
Ciiiiboooolllllaaaaaa!!!!!
One best movie I watched love this kinda movie..👍
True, to this day I still remember praying in the theater the old guy wouldn't get whacked!
O H.....
It's hard to believe this film is from the same guys that made The Big Lebowski. They're absolute chameleons.
its crazy how they made us think the whole scene through that at some point he was going to kill him, all the tension and at the end the choice of not killing him made his character even darker
whats interesting is that chigurh wouldnt see it as him choosing not to kill him, but fate deciding that the cashier wasnt going to die that day.
He didn't choose not to kill him. The coin toss was the decider. It was chance.
@@jonf6574 he chose everything. He took the choice of life and death out of the shopkeepers hands.
He's an evil bastard and it would give great pleasure to turn the cards on him
@@jonf6574 i was talking about the writer decision of not killing that cashier was a big step to make that psychopath even scarier
@@Damfinsaowefinawe absolutely but when i talked about choice i was talking about the writter decision of not making chigurh kill the cashier
I like how Anton chokes on the peanut. The whole movie they talk about him being like a ghost but here shows that even he can be taken down... by a peanut. 🥜
And later on by some children.
Firstimeshooter lol
When he said "you married into it!?"🤣
Ain’t nun but a peanut
Firstimeshooter it was those barbeque powder peanuts there a bit spicy 🌶
I’ve never seen this movie, and I have to tell you I practically on the edge of my seat here
