We can conclude, from his violent nature, that he did killed that guy then again, since nothing is show and theres no concrete evidence, theres almost an infinite amount of scenarios where the guy is not dead and he just "borrowed" that vehicle.

[@bakedandsteaked]

I don't know if i agree. During the coin toss scene, he seems pleased that he did not have to kill the man saying "well done" and changing his tone to that of a more pleasant one. Edit: after watching the film again last night, he definitely does seem to take some sort of pleasure in killing. Or maybe he just enjoys being the deliverer of fate, whether their fate be life or death at the time they meet him. There are multiple times he seems to enjoy killing such as the officer at the beginning of the film, or watching the man bleed out in the office after he gave the Mexicans the receiver. But there are other times he seems pleased that he can let people go, specifically the coin toss scene.

[@hellomate2405]

@@Larsaw66its like you're saying it's weird that there are people who hurt other people without empathy. psychopaths detach emotion from their actions, a regular person should he accidentally kill someone would feel remorse, they wouldn't. Anton is someone who doesn't feel anything when he kills somebody else. It's just business. So in a way, he Justifies his lack of empathy with the reasoning that it was fate.

[@jackbluehq6653]

​​@@hellomate2405 Anton is one of the most confusing villains for me personally Because I wanna hate him, he's a terrible man who kills with no resource and no care Yet I feel like i can't hate him. Like trying to say he's a horrible person is just a waste of time and breath. This is all due to anton himself, he's more of a husk than a man. He has no emotions, he's just this ghost that kills when he feels he has tp and doesn't care. Could you even label someone like anton as evil? The reason we call evil people evil, is because they enjoy the suffering they cause. Anton doesnt seem to enjoy it, he just does it when he needs too and he's so unempthetic and emotionless that I find it silly to call him evil. He's so dead inside, like an alien, that hating on him is pointless and meaningless. He's a pure psycopath, and trying to hate on a psycopath is pointless It's why I never get emotional or angry like most do when I hear storys and see real psycopaths detail their horrific crime, cause trying to argue with a psycopath is utter pointless. To the point that I roll my eyes when I see some viewer act so sad and angry when reacting to a psycopaths crime, because getting emotional over psycopaths does nothing but waste time. They feel nothing, so I feel nothing to them. Which i think is the best mindset when dealing with psycopaths

[@reginaldcampos5762]

@@kefkahkefkah that would be in character. But I assume he initiated the coin toss immediately after and the farmer lost. If he won, I would think Anton would take his own vehicle. The reason for this is because when people ask where he's going, he smirks and gives them a chance to live or die. I think he feels as though whatever action he would take is only dependent on chance, with keeping your current state (life and keeping your stuff intact) as a "reward". I say reward because I feel as though either way is losing in Anton's perverted mind. The farmers life was put on the line when he unwittingly challenged the notion of no real purpose by prefacing his question with an assumption that he was purposefully going somewhere to purposefully do something. Edit: I just realized that my last sentence was convoluted but I'm keeping it

[@CaioH.]

What I found interesting about this scene is that it's realistic too along with Javier Bardem's performance as a psychopathic killer. Many victims of serial killers in real life tried to help them without knowing the danger they were in and ended up dying in their hands (something Ted Bundy did to those girls, pretending to be an invalid with a crutch hitchhiking on the highways). They take advantage of people's kindness.

@@RichardsWorld business transaction to keep quiet.

[@astillia6073]

@@robertsaladino No, luck decided that the convenience store owner deserved to live, which gave Chigurh respect for him. Remember he said that if he put the coin in the till it would become a normal coin, before saying that it is a normal coin. What I infer is that the coin toss is meant as a learning experience to the old man to value his words and what he has more, especially since fate decided the man deserved to live. If you study Anton he seems to like people who don't waste time or words, as well as people who know what their place is, like the accountant.

[@raylampert1243]

Anton's biggest skill is that nearly anyone he encounters will do whatever he says, no matter whether it makes any sense or not.

I have a theory that when people like this come along who are complete sociopaths, lack remorse and empathy. That’s just evolution at work. Like what would be the perfect Hunter, gatherer and killer? Someone who has all of the traits .

[@jaymoose9313]

Julia situational I think .. I mean it’s not necessary to live with other people .. in modern times we don’t fend off predators so we’re adapting to the times .. ei killing other humans .. like the story from apocalypse now when brando says that he and his platoon inoculated a bunch of children and some regime hacked off a arm of every child that was given a shot. He then remarks of how genius it was, to do that and go home and sleep and love with your family is amazing. He then goes on to say how if he had a few thousand of these troops the war would’ve been already over .. but totally get what you’re saying just adding

its way to late at that point

[@Lava91point0]

Lol yeah i suddenly picture an alternate version of this scene, when the farmer asks him where he's going and Anton replies "i don't know". To that, the farmer tips his cap with "ok bye" and swiftly 180's back to his truck, plowing through some cacti

[@saliv88]

When you realize Anton’s code of dealing with people, you can tell whether or not he plans to kill someone based on the way they answer his questions. This guy always stuck out to me because he makes it about halfway/two-thirds on Anton’s good side by being straightforward, but then starts getting personal. When Anton smiles while saying “I don’t know”, you know he didn’t pass the Anton test.

[@codymachado]

I think he would've killed him regardless. His truck was fine he didn't need a boost it was all a set up to get someone to pull over because Anton needed to switch vehicles

[@anthonygerace8926]

@@codymachado That is true. This way the police would be looking for the wrong vehicle. Anton is obviously a psychopath, but his thinking is very logical. That's one of the things that make him so dangerous.

[@jdailey01230]

I always found it interesting that there were 3 different generations of normal life men that Anton randomly came across in the film. The old man at the gas station, this middle age man, and the young teen at the end who gave up his shirt. This poor guy was the only one who didn’t survive his encounter with Anton. I’m not sure if the film intended to signify something with the age separation of these men, but it always intrigued me regardless.

[@KennyVo120]

No country for middle aged men. Lol

[@gnosisi]

That sets. Anton really after all is a personified DEATH

Actually, he met 4 kinds of generation in the movie. The other one u forgot to mention is the guy who anton killed at the beginning of the movie.

Unfortunately you’re right. Even if it’s a family with children that has been used as a convincing lure to get people carjacked, robbed, and murdered. Don’t talk to strangers in strange places.

[@kevinstapp328]

Mistakes made by The Farmer: Stopping to help a stranger. Making Anton repeat himself in regards to the airport. Asking where Anton is going. Making small talk. (Speculation) Anton likely considered "brother, I've been there." too familiar, and not honest. The farmer says he was born and raised in the area he's in, he's likely never even been on a plane before. He's still talking about airstrips. He should have answered in the affirmative when asked if he could remove the chicken crates. All this to say, these are some of the things to consider when you meet an assassin broken down on the side of the highway in the Texas panhandle. It could save your life someday.

[@AlchemicalForge91]

“Do you know how crazy you are?” “you mean, the nature of my youtube comment?”

[@nogunk147]

Love that it ties in perfectly with the movie title. Each of Antons nameless victims were Elderly Men who were far too trusting of strangers because of the old timey values of being neighborly to everyone and this constantly comes as a shock to Tommy Lee Jones character that these murder victims were just kindly folks offering a helping hand and were killed in cold blood. Something he never imagined growing up and it solidifes the theme that times have changed and the older generation is slow to adjust to it. No Country for Old Men

[@jackbrian2993]

I think Chigurh was not thinking about kill him until he spoke too much and mentioned El Paso...poor guy was just helping somebody and had a chatty personality, who would've thought a Dora looking man is a psycho killer.

Luv this movie how Anton doesn’t even have to be shown killing people - You just take it for granted as the scene changes.

[@cogitatione1]

There's a telling scene in Robert Duvall's The Apostle, where a gentleman helps out Duvall's character and lets him camp in his backyard. The gentleman is glad to help a stranger, but he also takes precautions in case he turns out to be violent. That's the approach I believe is called for, and which I've used, in some situations where a stranger, or person in trouble, needs help.

[@brucetucker4847]

Not a bad idea, but there's no precaution that would have helped this guy other than hitting the gas when he first saw Chigurh.

[@maartenovergaauw8434]

I remember seeing it the first time how I loved the tracking of the camera from the farmer's POV until we face Anton. It really hit me up. The Coens are such masters!

Anyone noticed at the beginning at scene how Anton is just waiting on the side of the road just waiting for anyone to drive by and stop? He just knew at some point it was going to happen.

[@Jestinace]

I like how the weather is very sunny and just starting to darken when he's stealing the truck, and then juxtaposed with it is the cold and stormy sky as he's spraying down the truck. It's a pretty common film technique when it comes to setting tone, but still a really nice touch from the Coen's and probably Roger Deakins

[@agonzalez8924]

Boy, anton sure is touchy about anyone asking him where he is going or where he is coming from.
