Note to self: always go through the money to see if there are any tracking devices.
Zack TheBongRipper a
Except if it´s 1980. Probably you won´t even know tracking devices exist.
And. Nowadays they might have parts of the money serial numbers flagged so when you spend it they can track you.
Hell and high water casino washing might work if they don't already have some of them covered, you'd be better off burying it, sit on the money for a few years then maybe it might be safe to spend it.
The lower the amount the safer you'd be. 10k or less and people just chalk it up to cost of doing business, more and they gonna look for it.
Or Black Mambas.
Dude if you encounter drug money just walk away greed is what gets you killed an these mothers wonder why their kids end up dead because they can't keep there damm hands too themselves.
In case anyone was wondering, the guy in the truck said "close the door, there are wolves".
Thank you, that adds to scene for me, RIP btw, loved you in Aliens
@@ABandApart01 he must be commenting from the grave.
I imagine coyotes would be more common in Texas
@@venturatheace1 yes, both kinds, the canine and the trafficker.
@@zzz7zzz9 and they're everywhere in this movie. In the border crossing scene when Moss is stumbling into Mexico you can hear coyotes yapping in the distance like they can smell his blood in the air.
I love his response to finding the satchel of money. Just a couple of low sounds to acknowledge the weight of the situation -- nothing celebratory or manic. That moment really showed a certain presence of mind early on, elevating the character. Such a great movie.
chromo48 Definitely. Spot on
Cause he didn't found it randomly. He saw that shooting was a drug deal that went south and someone had the money. That's why he was searching for the "last man" standing, he knew he would had the money, and he tracked him on purpose. That's why he wasn't surprised about the money.
chromo48 ...mistake going back with water...big mistake.
chromo48 Yeah because put yourself in that situation. If you found the money your adrenaline would be pumping out of control due to the threat of possible interment danger lurking. It would take some time and space between you and the scene of the shooting to feel safe.
He is a vietnam veteran, he has been through shit before.
This movie literally made me feel like I was there, in Texas, in the early 80’s..... Outstanding movie all around... Will never be another movie like this one.... EVER
Matt Sharpe unless they remake it in 7 years
Tom Markulics
They will never remake this movie
@@mattsharpe2861 yes they will. Everything will get remade, hollywood is so out of ideas.
@@zzz7zzz9 except this idea?
@@robertsaladino this movie is already 13 years old. Look at hollywood today, the biggest movies are based off comics ffs. THAT'S how out of ideas they are. No different than music, all the remakes and sampling, etc.
Remember, the tracking device played a minor role in Chigurh's tracking of Moss. Moss's much larger mistake was returning to the scene in order to give the dying man a gallon of water. When he had to abandon his truck Anton was able to pry the VIN from the door, which allowed him to find out who took the money. Had he not returned to the scene, Anton would have a much harder time finding the money, but if he discarded the transponder and returned to the scene, Anton would still know who took the money and would have certainly found Moss eventually.
But if he discarded the transponder and never came back, Chigurh wouldn't have found him. And we wouldn't have a story.
Both were put into the story to make sure that either way or both ways would hold the story. The VIN number giving away Moss. And the new state-of-the-art transponder to ensure Chigurh keeps finding Moss until Chigurh crosses the line. Moss, being a good guy and not familiar with the ways in the criminal world, stood little to no chance of survival. Despite his survival skills, him being a self-made man, and ruggedness. His morality and ignorance to his own vulnerability was his downfall.
I thought he went back for loot
@@jodycrawford5539 No, he took the money but left the drugs. He returned to give the dying man water, only to find someone killed him earlier and took the drugs.
The people chasing them was the ones who owned the drugs.
Very true, everyone focuses on the tracker but going back to give the guy water when as a Vietnam vet he would know the guy was most likely dead never sat well with me….. but still ons of my favourite movies
I'm 100% certain if he hadn't returned to give the water, he would have not seen the end of the movie.
Brolins performance is beyond underrated most of the focus is on Bardem but Brolin was my favorite part of the movie
Agreed man
me to
underrated and his character, Moss, in the movie is constantly underestimated. Yet Moss is the only person to encounter, fight back, injure, and escape Chigurh alive. Moss was very cunning; I really was rooting for him the whole movie. Moss had a lot of Moxie and Brolin played it perfectly.
His face, manners, it all screams bad ass Texan
@@sofakingonmynuts1438 Well for all that no.Theres an old saying;never return to the scene of the crime!
'' If I don't come back tell mother I love her. Your mother's dead, Llewelyn !? Well then. I'll tell her myself.''
He knew it.
He did come back though to put her on the bus.
classic
Love the fact that it’s sunny out before he finds the money no sign of rain or anything but as soon as he finds the satchel when he’s walking back to his truck there’s a thunderstorm brewing in the background, foreshadowing what’s to come. It’s not shown at the end of this but It was a cool addition to the film.
Good point. And Texas is like that; thunderstorms pop up out of nowhere rather quickly.
That's just Texas weather, if you dont like it, wait five minutes and it'll change, just like Louisiana
Fate whispers to the warrior......
@@forteanthreat it's just the same in Ireland as well the weather is very hormonal
That’s Texas
It's amazing the control of the Coen brothers in the direction. They simply take their time. The development of every character has the perfect pace. Such a masterpiece.
The Coen's never disappoint.
@@ussexeter4601 except burn after reading was a little disappointing
Agreed. They really establish how dumb Moss’s character is.
He takes an automatic weapon from a CRIME SCENE, a gun that likely was responsible for killing one of those guys.
Anyone who knows anything about guns knows to NEVER take a gun that you randomly find.
Even if it is a full auto HK MP5K.
@@jeffw8218shut your pie hole
Moss acted like he was in a video game, haha.
This is the most texas looking guy in movie history
He played a good ole Texas boy to the tee. But he's a California boy in reality. Good acting.
Sideways Horizontal Well thanks for making my point. Josh is from Santa Monica, CA while Tommy Lee is a Texas boy. Not much of a acting stretch for Tommy Lee, but a huge one for Brolin.
@@gabbyhayes1568 And how about a hand for the scenery! (which is not in Texas)
Edit: mostly in NM but some in TX too, thanks for the corrections!
Sam Elliot
@Sideways Horizontal When I hear the word 'cowboy' an image of Sam pops up in my head instantaneously :)
Moss wasn’t supposed to say anything other than “…Yeah,” upon discovering the money, but Brolin thought it would be appropriate to add a slight, “Mmm” noise. He asked the Coens ahead of time, knowing how much they dislike improv. They thought about it for several minutes, and asked Brolin to try the noise for them before they started filming. Brolin delivered six variations of “Mmm,” and the Coens told him he was allowed to try the fourth one on camera, but that it likely wouldn’t make it in the movie. Well, it’s in the movie,
That's interesting to hear. His response to finding the money is one of my favorite moments in the movie. It just says so much about his character. Thanks for sharing that bit of info.
Robopiglet no that's actually true, Brolin and the Coens confirmed it in an interview
lol
Ye looked into it av ya
Bobby, no need to bullshit all ya life, son. Fucking 6 mmm's, get fucked.
One of the greatest movie ever made. Great actors, great entertainment. One of my all-time favorite movies right there.
Crime & drama movie: Rated R
Credit to the Cohen Bros. for casting Brolin. He was pretty much out of show business (as far as major motion picture roles) - it was a brilliant casting choice by them.
Nick Jasper fun fact: Josh Brolin asked Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez for help for his No Country audition tape when he was filming Grindhouse with them.
Ahmad Halimi : I never knew that. They obviously gave him some great advice. Tarantino should use Brolin - considering he’s down to his last film. I hope that’s not true.
Josh hasn’t stopped at all Sicario for starters
Credit to McCarthy they left his words mostly as is.
He's better in Sicario Soldado
I love the way him finding the money symbolizes him finding money, great writing.
Indeed. No detail was overlooked.
Bravo Vinc-Wait
Correct, but at a deeper level, it represents his existential crisis, reflecting his generation's zeitgeist.
Fun fact: "zeitgeist" is a German term, meaning, "finding money."
I really *felt* that he found the money.
an experienced military man will first take the weapon, then take the cargo,
the quality is in the details, unless of course the director wanted to show that the ranger is a self-confident fool.
I live in Albuquerque and spotted Brolin in a Walgreens once. He had on reading glasses and was inspecting some medication. I walked up to him and said I’m a big fan of his and he was very polite. I also said I loved his work on this movie. This was about two weeks before they announced his role as Cable in DP2. He must’ve been in town filming Sicario 2.
Cool! I met him in a NYC airport in 1990. Only recognized him because I used to watch Private Eye. Kind of a Crime Story look to it.
Hell yeah bro! I used to live in ABQ. Well, technically Rio Rancho but I also spent every summer with my mom out there. 505!
The quiet is so loud out there.
It really be like that.
@@Hassony523 all the time
remind me for whom the bell tolls by metallica ..the silence is so loud..
One of the most perfect movies ever made.
true
Except for U Turn starring Sean Penn... that one will keep you thinking for a while
@@glennbeadshaw727 Great flick, y9u are the first person ive heard to mention it in years . still got my vhs copy.
No such thing as most perfect.

Original k98k sniper for me
For me this is where Josh Brolin truly shined and did the perfect type casting. Awesome movie. Instant classic.
everytime i see a clip of this movie i immediately want to go watch the whole thing.
That’s how I feel about this movie as well as breaking bad
Me too !
The way he nonchalantly slings the gun over his shoulder abd says " I told you I ain't got no water". That line is just brutal to me. It shows that Moss is actually so desensitized to death in the war, his heart is still cold.
I think it was just the reality of the situation. Not to say he wasn’t hardened by the war but he did come back that night with water for the guy.
@@macuser907 that act of mercy got him killed...true McCarthy lol
What guy goes hunting in the desert with no water? Especially a war veteran in Texas? He don't look like he has a map or compass either.
@@delanorrosey4730 he lives out there and hunts there all the time. It looks like he's on someone's ranch as he picks up his shell so no one knows he was there.
@@desertweasel6965 I always assumed he picked it up because he seems like the type of guy who would reload his own ammo
One of the most iconic movies I’ve ever seen. It’s like watching The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly trilogy.
This scene only paints a picture of what happened but, it does it so beautifully you don’t need the subtext for it. From the dog running away, to the circling trucks, to everything else. It’s a great scene.
2007 was a great years for movies
- No country for old man
- There will be blood
- Assassination of Jesse James
3 masterpieces in 1 year.
"The Dollars Trilogy"
I like that when he’s looking through the binoculars, they didn’t use the stupid fake silhouette shape.
Yeah I don't get why movies do that, completely ruins the immersion imo
I never understood why they show it like that in other movies, at most it should be a vignetting look, but i like what they did here more
But the binocular zoom should be more close look than that
@@vitojohn8168 No man, binoculars aren't magic. Maybe if you have some 2000 dollar nasa spec quanta-oculars, but normal 50 dollar binoculars just make things visible, they don't let you see a tick on a dog from 500 yards
Him, being a Vietnam vet, makes more sense why he is so damn ice cold when it comes to death
or he is the one who has killed them all...
@@cnitevedi4832 Found the dumbass who didn't watch the movie.
@@cnitevedi4832 that would be the guy dead against the tree who ran with the cash...
@@cnitevedi4832 Better Get outta here
In the book, it explains he was a sniper, which is why he does the whole "I'm just gonna sit here, in the sun, for an hour, to see if that guy under the tree moves".
Now I'll never hear the "hmm" at 3:26 without laughing after the Hot Ones interview with Brolin.
For real lol
I just came here after watching that bit of the interview lol
Context bro
I love his reaction. The subtle “...yea.” Followed by the “hmm” for some reason makes me chuckle a little.
Great thing about this movie is how plain spoken and stoic and laconic everyone is. But you can still feel his elation coming through even though he's trying to maintain his outward calm and suspicion of his surroundings.
This film is so brilliant. The Sound, the light, the actors, the story. One of my faves.
👍
Am I the only one here to say that roger deakins absolutely a true mastermind behind the camera
You beat me to it, but you're alone no longer. I'm glad Roger got his Oscar for Blade Runner 2049.
Fan Made Videos ageed.
Shut up he isnt important
Didn't know this was his work. Blade Runner 2049 is my favourite movie of all time.
I think Brolin was much under-appreciated in this movie.
This movie is a love letter to late 70s pickup trucks haha.
Bruh the bullet holes ruined them trucks😭
3:20 Check every single stack like that and this becomes a completely different movie.
Teddy KGB Right! Left both the tracker and the satchel there and kept quiet about his findings and layed low, he could've gotten away!
And ignore his conscience about the thirsty drug dealer...
Ultimately, him going back to give the dying guy water was the reason that got him killed. But had he looked through all the money and found the tracker, he might not have gone back.
Did yall notice that the tracker was in a bunch of $1 bills? Why did he just check those first? Change the bag and everything
@J P how the hell did he not get sunburned?? like damn bro heatstroke to the max
Anton wants to know you location.
haha
It's none of his business friendo
Anton *knows* your location
Anton knows your location, are you okay with this?
Literally
Dude finds a briefcase full of $100’s and his only response is “…yeah…mm” 😂 Love it
Llewellyn was a Vietnam sniper. He had a Remington 700 with him for hunting, likely the same style of gun he used in Vietnam. And yet he did not use the gun to fire a bullet through the skull of the man under the tree, just to be safe. He has the morals to know that killing a stranger, even for a potentially massive payday, is wrong in civil society. Even if the person was a drug dealer. Instead, he sits and waits, and only approaches with a gun drawn for defense, not with intent to kill.
When I start watching this movie, every time I get to this scene, I often dream that there might be some kind of special version available, where Llewellyn and Carla Jean get away scott free, and live a wonderful life together. But I am never disappointed by how the actual movie ever turns out, because it is just so damn well put together.
yeah, me too. The book is well worth a read, some extra stuff not in the film
It's those morals that do him in in the end, him going back for the guy in the car is so stupid lol. He's dead either way, even if he comes back with water. Still love the movie, but that really irked me
@Chandller Burse Each stack is 10k ... I just think it was too much to resist for him. His reaction to it seems to show he KNOWS it will bring trouble, but when faced with a case filled with millions of dollars, common sense doesn't work so well. If it was me in that situation, I would have pocketed 10 stacks - 100k - enough to change my life for the better, but hopefully not enough to have dangerous men follow my trail.
Llewellyn could have certainly qualified as Marksman on the M14
@@martynstembridge7714 except one 10k USD stack in that briefcase is worth of 40k USD today
I remember I was pissed off when this movie beat There Will Be Blood for Best Picture but as I got older I realized this is indeed a much better film. Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
They were competing since the begining. Both filmed in west TX.
Both are excellent films.
As in everything in life.
"If it ain't it'll do til the mess gets here." Best line in the movie.
This movie is amazing. They make it a point to show the Drugs in the truck. Later on, when the sheriff is there they show the truck is empty. Little details like that makes this an amazing movie
The ASMR quality of almost every scene in No Country makes this an gem to the ASMR community.
Frankly, ASMR is really something for mentally challenged people. Turn off your smartphone, grow a pair and go into nature.
There you have your ASMR and actually feel like start living.
@@eadghe seems stupid. I work in nature and am constantly outside. Ain’t nothing wrong with falling asleep to bob ross man
3:16 Who came here to see watch this moment after seeing Josh Brolin on Hot Ones?
Exactly why I am here, but is it 3:16 or 3:25 that he was talking about?
@@XCalce good question! Haha
@@XCalce Pretty sure it' the "hmm"
I.
I always interpreted his utterance as a reluctant "yeah", as if he knew his fate was now bound to this decision, and he was helpless in his choice.
This movie has taught millions of people that if you find a large amount of cash, you better be checking that shit inside and out for any tracking devices😆
I'm looking forward to the day when I find a suitcase full of money, just so i can check it for trackers. :)
It's a tough choice to keep it. One tiny slip and you're in trouble. Plus, you'll have to move if you plan on spending any of it...people will ask and speculate.
Yeppers that's the first thing I'm gonna do
First time I saw this movie I said to myself it's an alright movie...
But, the more and more I see it I tell myself "wow what a movie"...
One of the best movie that came out back in the day...
I love how the bad guy in the movie literally represents death, and this guy right here countered it with struggle and will to live
“Ain’t no lobos” is my favorite line because of how ironic it is and funny as Llewelyn mixes the two languages in his southern drawl
Mexican america including myself do this all the time most of us arent fluent in Spanish like native born mexicans but we mostly speak enough and understand but mix words up
"ain't got no agua"
i like how how both lewelyn and anton both have their own set of skills in this movie.
lewelyn shows great craftsmanship and efficiency with his surroundings and anything that would be useful to him in any event, while anton has incredible instinct and is a master of strategy.
both seem to have incredible wits, and i think thats mostly why he was able to escape anton so many times and how anton was able to find him so quickly.
their skills with weaponry is already apparent as is due to their military service, but that's besides the point.
Was the suppressor on Antons' shotgun made by him do you reckon? Can such silencers be bought for that type of shotgun?
Anton doesn't have "incredible instincts". He just operates in a calculated way.
Anton and Llewelyn are equals in my opinion (in terms of skills). Llewelyn had strong intuitions and great planning shown in the motel scenes, and the discovery of the tracker.
Anton also has those qualities, but he's not a regular human being to begin with, lol.
Love love loved it ! One of the most honest believable portrayals of a desperate man in over his head, learning too late the nature of his dogged pursuer. 100/10
I've seen this film many times. Each scene is so managed that every time I discover new things in it.
Woody Harrelson, ironic when he says "there's plenty of them out there," talking about psychopaths, given Charles Harrelson his father was a hit man for the mafia. Everyone so low keyed and methodical in this, for a high-octane movie. Brilliant!
Last year I went on a camping trip. There were several families, kids, old people. We were gathered around the campfire one night and they asked me to tell a story. I told them this movie. I went through the whole thing; they were captivated.
did you shoot them after that?
Has always been my favorite part of the movie. Peaceful… and the money discovery. Just seeing a good man have a stroke of luck while quietly assessing the situation.
Finding somebody’s drug money is probably never a good thing.
He knows it's not "free" money... he's taking a big chance taking it, so no resason to get too excited.
Yes, temptation was huge to take it. But after few days he was dead because of that decision. And soon his wife was dead as well. Lot of people died because of that, some were criminals and some completely innocent.( chicken farmer, hotel clerk, truck driver )
Hot One sent me here to hear the infamous "hmm"🤣
I think the Satchel is the real bad guy in this movie.
Lol
Fucking Arizonans lol
Greed and Pride
It always is. Zona in the house!
This movie didn't need background music, gritty, honest laconic.
A terrifying slow moving chase scene in which others were oblivious to his plight
Take a careful look at the drug bricks in the truck as Llewelyn lifts the tarp at 0:12 . Do you see a small rectangular protrusion sticking out of the center brick in the second row from top? It looks like a transponder shaped just like the one in the money satchel, doesn't it??
I like how there is no music, it feels so realistic. Makes you ask yourself _What would you do if you came upon this scene?_
It's terrifying to consider...
Agree. But at this stage of my life, the answer would be easy. I'd immediately assume the WORST kind of people are involved in all of this. I would head right back to my truck after seeing the scene of the shootings, and call the authorities.
Coming back after Brolin's Hot Ones interview.
"Yeah..." hahaha
As Hitchcock showed
The less detail you show
The more Imagination
Minimalism
The best scenes stay in eternal memory
Like a genius Painting
I often watch those scenes
Frame by frame
Like Photography
Absolute masterpiece of American cinematography.
Amazing film. It’s just so perfect!
The Book, audio book and Movie are ABSOLUTE CLASS...highly recommend 👌
Not sure if anyone here commenting are gamers..but damn he would make a great john marston
Joe Dragon im fat ugly and gay
Why do you have to say "gamers"? Just say the reference, if people get it they'll let you know.
He looks more like Arthur Morgan
chippler because gamers are epic
Please don't say "gamers"
Saw the movie then read the book. Moss picks up a hitch hiker in the book and the dialogue between them is brilliant, she gets killed also at the same time as Moss. Also at the end, Bell goes and interviews the boys that take Chigurhs gun. Theres also dialogue between Anton and Wells and Anton explains why he was arrested at the start of the film, also Carla jean calls the coin toss in the book... It made me smile when one of the kids that bell interviews has L and R written on his trainers impying he wasnt the smartest kid... Definately read the book
3:25 “hmm” mentioned by Josh Brolin on Hot Ones, ha! “We’ll never know.”
I love how they show him sitting looking at his watch; and then leaves his things taking only the sub machine-gun. It shows great depth
yeah i didnt understand that part..why was he sitting and looking at his watch and and then leave his belongings?
@@mahendrasingh-tn9ju He was watching the man's shadow to see if the man would move, because that would mean the man was still alive. He looks at his watch to see the time, and then he waits. He checks it again, to see how long he's been watching the shadow. After he decides that the man is probably dead, he drops everything except the small machinegun, because his rifle would be useless in a close-range gunfight.
@@joshs.5384 Damn, that's good. Have been sort of wondering the watch's place all these years.
and when he picks up the 1911. In any other movie they would have just taken the gun and put it down their pants. But the characters in this movie actually are smart and act like human beings which make them so much better. Llewelyn knows how guns work. He takes the magazine out, clears the chamber, puts the magazine back in, THEN he puts in his pants. Since there isnt a round chambered, he wont have to worry about it going off.
This movie was so superb at building a sense of dread.
I like how he switches to a more closed range weapon for when he inspects the final dead guy , I love the small details like this in movies ,
The moment cartel found out the money was missing, Liewelyn became a dead man. The cartel was able to search the residents background, having a profile on every single person living near by. It wasn't hard for them to figure out the most probable candidate to be at the middle of a desert - a vietnam vet who enjoys hunting. The radio transmitter only transmits a limited range, gave the trackers a more precise location of where it is. It wasn't the main tool they used to narrow down on Llewelyns location. The best course of action for Llewelyn was to take a few piles of cash, a few guns and a few bags of drug. Enough for him to live comfortably but not enough for the Cartels to hire somebody to track him down. If he really wanted to keep all that money, he has to change his name, moves to a different country, and lives a complete different life style, cut all ties to his family and friends. But like Carson said, he wasn't cut out for this.
jsc Someone else pointed out that if he had called in an anonymous tip to the police about a drug deal gone wrong, and searched the bag after he left and left the tracker there, he could've gotten away clean, cause if Anton saw a bunch of police at the scene him and the cartel that haired him would've thought the police had it, and even more details, if he had layed low and not told anyone about his finding and stayed quiet for about a year and moved away, he definitely could've been safe.
the problem was 2millions, not dead people or cars. the case tracked him very well. and his stupidity for driving back as well.
The movie is set in the 1970s, not many people aware of trackers, etc.
As for the cartels doing research, it's the 70s, AIN'T no place to do that kinda research.
the only search teh cartels had to do was run the truck VIN, which they are shown taking off teh door ID plate, the vehicle registration would easily show his home address
@MrTron he was a veteran he should have known
your explanation makes absolutely no sense.
I was rooting for Moss the whole time. He really kept his cool even when presented with all that money. I was really deflated when I saw him on that motel floor. I just didn't want to believe it.
The death of the protagonist is a real weak spot in this movie. Handled better it could have really elevated this movie to top tier status. Also the horrible acting from the mother-in-law, what was that about?
I was just flabbergasted, like "Wait is he really dead? Where'd he go?!"
Yep, a very fcked up angle and turn from the CB guys alas.@@gamerstheater1187
This movie is super good because it's absence of a musical score or any soundtrack. Making it 'seem' that much more real. If I'm not mistaken the only bit of 'extra' scene enhancing sound that's added in is right in the beginning during Anton's struggle with the deputy on the floor. It's very subtle too. Then it's really 'chill' & similar to real life. That quietness builds up & emphasizes the moments when gunfire's exchanged- rounds ricocheting off glass- SO much more. They're much more sudden & dramatic. No idea how these Cohen dudes pulled off such a flawless masterpiece. It's almost 'weird' or unbelievable.
There's also a low, but perceptible, single note that sounds like a hum added during the coin toss scene, but otherwise it's completely absent a score of any kind. And after a while you stop noticing entirely. It just sucks you right in.
This is one of my all-time favorite movies; it's up there with my other favorite, Three Days of the Condor as both have similar levels of intensity. No Country For Old Men is just brilliant with the scenery and dialogue. This movie captures the look and vibe of 1980 in South Texas; the way every character talks and looks is spot-on for that period. Josh Brolin's portrayal of his character is outstanding, and Bardem was awesome too; even the chick by the pool and the kids at the end were great.
Yes it is. And love ‘Condor’ as well. Becoming less known these days. That one and ‘ Marathon Man’ of the same period are very well done. ‘’Is it Safe?”
Once Llewelyn touched that satchel, his doom was sealed.
Going back was pretty dumb...... like horror/slasher movie run up the stairs instead outside dumb.
Kruppt808 Returning to the scene is beyond stupid. Never, ever go in reverse if you don’t absolutely have to. Once you are gone, STAY gone.
Personally, I'd have probably left the cash, because, as the story shows, someone is going to look for it, but I'd have helped myself to their firearms hardware, as he also did. No one will be looking for that, in fact whomever they send to clean that scene would be going to great lengths to disappear said hardware.
@@RobertMorgan anyone who says they'd have left the cash is in denial. For the purpose of a FANTASTIC story, things do not work out for Moss, because of choices he made, primarily to show that he wasnt just some guy getting greedy on dumb luck, but that he was a good person, and couldnt repay his good fortune in finding that money, with bad grace by letting a man die from thirst who asked him for water. yeah not a smart decision. I think in reality a person of his level of intelligence and frame of mind would have known that man would be dead by the time he got back, but then we wouldnt have this great story. He probably also would have considered the possibility of it being tracked far earlier on, though as the movie shows the trackers range was limited, so he had time to come to that realization. They would have had a tough time tracking down a man based soley off a set of cowboy boot prints in the dirt in the 1980s. The real lesson here, never go back.
When he took the satchel -
Satchel: "So you have chosen death."
I like how the directors display the instincts of Llewelyn. Very aware & capable. A worthy adversary for the film's main antagonist.
I can watch this scene over and over.
My favorite two parts of this scene: Where Llewelyn puts his binoculars down at 2:04. The shot literally puts us in the perspective of the character, the suddle camera jerk looking down adds so much to the scene in my opinion.
Second favorite part: Llewelyn's line "If you stopped... to watch your backtrack... you're gonna shoot my dumb ass. ...But. If you stopped... you stopped in shade."
Subtle
Big deal
In case ya’ll’re wondering, I believe the film said there was 4 million in that suitcase, or maybe it was 2 million. Either way, this film takes place in 1980 so 4 million in 1980 is equivalent to 12 million today, 2 million about 6 million. Not a bad little score.
I'm here for the "hmm"
I'm just here to see this after watching the Hot Ones interview
haha same here.
We must acknowledge the quality of sound engineering in this scene. Brilliant!!
The 2 boots sticking up great cinematography
I love this scene, the location, the wind, everything!!
This movie taught me to take the money out, check for a transmitter, and to ditch the case asap.
2:50 that is one damn fine looking 1911 pistol right there!!
I read your comment with a texan accent :D .
In another scene, the dog chasing him across the river was really heart pounding.
You’re right! I remember seeing this in the theater and it felt like that dog was going to take a bite out of me!
I'm here because of Hot Ones
A brilliant film. And some incredible cinematography.
"The dead man was lying against a rock with a nickelplated government .45 automatic lying cocked in the grass between his legs. He'd been sitting up and had slid over sideways. His eyes were open. He looked like he was studying something small in the grass. There was blood on the ground and blood on the rock behind him. The blood was still a dark red but then it was still shaded from the sun. Moss picked up the pistol and pressed the grip safety with his thumb and lowered the hammer."
And you say all this because?
@IfYouDisagreeYouAreWrong I've noticed sometimes people will refer to a full sized 1911 as the "government" model, as opposed to the compact commander, or the smaller office sized 1911
@Nick Maclachlan There are no more than 3 dots...
Ever...
@@angelajohnson6659 I believe that's from the book/script
Here after Josh’s Hot One’s Interview
This Movie brings back memories of my sweet love
If there was one thing that he was thinking of when looking down at that money it was "remember, nothing in life comes easy"
I love this movie
here after Hot Ones episode;)
Great films don't depend on exposition and that is one of the reasons this film is great.
And yet this guy literally spoke to no one to relay his thoughts in this scene.
15th anniversary of a modern-day masterpiece
Josh Brolin is underrated in this movie but i will say his performance in this movie is quite damn badass awesome!
according to web info a one inch stack of hundreds = 233 bills. there are 6 stacks of hundreds in the case as seen at 03:08. I'm not sure the exact height of the case but I'd estimate it at between 12" to 15" tall. giving some space for the top & bottom lets say there's between 11" to 14" of room inside the case for stacks. this gives us (233 X 6 X 100) multiplied by between 11 to 14 = 1.54 to 1.95 million in there. Of course these are just approximations.
+James Shelnutt sounds right ..now question why did moss return there later
+James Shelnutt si chica si
you forgot to take into account the transmitter that took up half a stack lol
Aw Snap lol
worlds 1st drug deal gone bad for chigurh stupid pussy goes ballistic and alarms the feds
Carla Jean: "How long do i have to stay at ..."
Lewelyn: " Baby ..at what point would you quit bothering to look for your 2 millions dollars?"
after watching these clips, I ordered the dvd.
My girlfriend (at the time) had watched this movie before me, but she recommended it to me. She said it was kinda weird and that I would probably like it. She prefers romcoms and I am obviously weird because I loved it. It became an instant classic to me. When she asked me what I thought of it my response was simply this: " That movie is going to win the Academy Award for best picture."
gotta ask; u guys still together>?
@@siggifreud812(at the time)
This is by far the best movie ever made.
One of the biggest reasons this is my favorite movie of all time is because they literally made the whole book into a movie even down to the dialogue, the only changes made were so well placed that they make the movie feel real. Cormac McCarthy was a masterful author, and the Coen brothers are equally masterful with movies.
"I reckon I go out the way I come in" Llewelyn should've heeded his own advice
He did heed his own advice, what got him caught was going back in at night to help the cartel member in the truck.
Shitidowithmyfriends He got caught with his pants down....
the transmitter doesnt have infinite range though. while chigur is looking for him it takes a while of driving before he even gets a signal
@@VivaMessico yea, if he just pissed off real far, he probably would've counted the money or something, and found that device
