Film: No Country For Old Men: now here is a film full of space, time to breathe and heart-thumping tension. Given, the characters were not really explored in depth, it’s not a film about that. There was so much to explore otherwise that I didn’t miss it anyway. The story was centred about a psychopath, casual murder and some gore, blood, dust and desert. It was however, quiet; quiet enough to hear your heartbeat. It beat out because of the plot which didn’t give away too many secrets in advance. The theme of ageing was never far away, timeless characters were set against a guy who was so conscious of his own. I liked this film, the space, the long scenes and the smallness of the players in that vast desert.
Its a film we’ve wanted to see since it was first advertised….I like your review….maybe I’ll get round to watching it one day…:)
