Chigurh has been declared the most accurate depiction of a psychopath ever in a movie.

[@Th3Gam3925]

Declared by who exactly?? Who declared that???

[@backforblood3421]

@@Th3Gam3925 "Experts say No Country for Old Men’s Anton Chigurh is the most realistic villain Science settles it: Anton Chigurh was actually a psychopath. Here's what else researchers found." "Of over 120 movie psychopaths observed, psychiatrists have deduced that the most by far realistic portrayal of a psychopath is Javier Bardem's portrayal as the cold and calculating Anton Chigurh in No Country For Old Men." "Anton Chigurh from 'No Country for Old Men' voted "most realistic psychopath ever"... Putting the maniacal laugh and expressive theatrics to one side to portray the psychopath, forensic psychiatrist Samuel Leistedt names the performance as the most realistic depiction of the mental illness in all of cinema. “They don’t know what an emotion is,” the psychiatrist stated in a real-life study that led Leistedt and his colleague Paul Linkowski to spend three years watching 400 movies in search of the most realistic depiction of psychopaths in cinema."

[@coolexio]

Psychology is not an exact science. The idea that there is something it means to have an accurate depiction of psychopathy is sensationalist at best. Any pathologist worth their salt knows no two cases present in exactly the same way even for well known physical ailments, it would be bizzare for this not to apply in something as nebulous as psychopathy.

[@Washanuga]

That's only based on two forensic psychiatrist colleagues who watched 400 films looking for realistic depicitons of psychopathy. Not exactly hard science, but still fun. Norman Bates and Hannibal Lecter, though great characters, are not realistic. One of the psychiatrists said Chigurh reminded him of two real-life professional hit men he interviewed. They also rated Henry from Portrait of a Serial Killer highly,

​@@WashanugaMost people with disorders like that usually end up in positions like that.

[@jamesscanlan6240]

Did you guys notice the movie has no music/soundtrack? Very unusual but very effective.

[@davidking7750]

I knew something was "off" with the movie. No score. It felt more real and uncomfortable to watch. You knew something fcked may happen at any moment.

[@strangebiped]

You two are so good at explaining what this movie depicted & what it actually represents. I forgot your Husbands name, but I believe HE definitely 'NAILED IT' when he explained the story. Thank you Both, & Lady your insights into the actions of the other actors was 'SPOT ON' also, Thank you for watching this masterpiece of visual story telling. "Sometimes one cannot really do anything to change the outcome of present events".

[@Scary__fun]

Yes, Marion got the theme of the movie... I was waiting for him to say "fate" but he said it in so many words. A person can get cancer, or get injured killing a steer or meet a psychopathic personification of death while driving and end up getting killed. It's a pessimistic view of life showing that even though people think themselves the heroes in their own life stories, in reality having a good conscience and taking water to a wounded man can get you killed. Even Chigurh ended up not being an invincible symbol of death in a random car crash near end of movie... fate or chance symbolized by him flipping his coin can also strike him.

[@StarryStarryNocturne]

@@Scary__fun Well, I'm sure him taking the money in the first place was the real, glaringly obvious bad move.

[@DeeSee25]

They get it. They always break the movies down so well

[@flarrfan]

No one is better at subverting expectations from a century of movie-watching than the Coen bros...You rarely get the beginning and end that you expect.

[@jeffsherk7056]

I like your analysis at the end. You two are smart. Read the book by Cormac McCarthy - If you like the movie you will like the book.

[@gk5891]

This doesn't end on the screen. It ends in your mind days or weeks later. I saw it in the theater and I could right a detailed synopsis without any thought decades later. Very few films have that kind of impact.

[@t0dd000]

This is the power of McCarthy's writing.

[@ubergoober25]

I watched it for the first time 4 days ago. Still thinking about the gas station scene

[@shainewhite2781]

Winner of 4 Oscars including Best Picture. Also Javier Bardem is terrifying as hell in this movie!

[@byronjones7263]

Coen Bros made this film and Fargo, and True Grit (2010), for your future enjoyments.

[@johnbernhardtsen3008]

Hell or High Water with Chris Pine and Jeff Bridges got a feel like this movie!

[@arraymac227]

In case it wasn't mentioned: Javier Bardem won an Oscar for playing Chigurrh.

[@robmann400]

Chigurh killed people who posed a threat to him or his mission of him getting back the money. He gave coin flips to a man who did not necessarily pose a threat - informing the police about the Dallas plates if asked about any strangers - or being fair in killing Llewelyn’s wife. By giving her a coin flip he was taking the decision out of his own hands and leaving it up to fate or The Fates of Greek mythology whom he thinks he ultimately works for; Chigurh is an agent of Fate. At the gas station Chigurh is stunned by the idea that the owner married into the situation he now finds himself in with the toss all those years ago by marrying the daughter of the owner of the station. He’s marvelling at the incredibly involved, long term threads The Fates have woven to get him and 5he quarter to this point in space and time.. He’s relieved when the call comes out in the owner’s favour because he doesn’t really want to kill the guy, he just wants to find the money. There’s some Free Will vs Determinism philosophical ideas woven into this movie as well as the war in Vietnam which ended in 1975. Carson and Llewelyn were both in Vietnam, Carson was a Colonel and is now retired as the restaurant parking lot, two Sheriffs chat reveals. The CIA used to fund Black Ops by selling drugs out of SE Asia in the USA. The movie is set in 1980 and the CIA is set up in office towers with conveniently missing floors. Who else is going to have tracers available to put in satchels full of money? The title ‘No Country For Old Men’ is taken from a line in a poem by Yates called ‘Sailing To Byzantium’ which is about an aging guy trying to come to terms with his own mortality. There are things going on in this film involving The Aeneid which have to do with foundation myths which are used to to justify horrible acts of violence like war, empire, and genocide. In any case, I’ve seen this movie over 50 times and notice or learn something new every time. Thanks for making videos eh.

[@Gort-Marvin0Martian]

All the Coen brothers films are very quirky. Try the very first REAL full film they released. Blood Simple. When you watch it you'll see they were establishing the crazy path they have gone down with films. It's so good that, not only did I buy the Blu-ray I also bought a copy of the actual script. It's really my favorite Coen brothers work. IT's always fun watching you guys react to films. As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.

[@DanielSelk]

Chigurrh's character is the definition of tension. You can't tell what he's going to do next and you're just waiting for it every second you see him.

[@murrayroodbaard207]

It's "No Country for Old Men' because society has changed so that older people no longer understand the (new) rules. Criminals were more predictable and had more "honor." Now it is just about stupid things and the "old generation" doesn't understand the level of violence and the reasons. Chigurh is the symbol of how violence no longer comes with any rhyme or reason. It just happens over stupid and petty things like a coin flip or because he "made a promise." The old guy in the wheelchair basically said, the world has changed and will always be changing, and it's not going to wait for you to catch up. It will move forward without you. It is also why the Sheriff said he feels "outmatched." He can't keep up with the level and amount of violence anymore.

[@MrRondonmon]

Not really, the book was set in "1979-80" so its not about our modern times vs. Old Times per se, even though it is, if we are thinking from 1980 LOOKING BACKWARD in time. The Sheriffs of those days were seeing a Border gone mad because of all the cartels selling of dope, whereas 20-40 years before a lot of those sheriffs barely had to arrest anyone for a violent crime, now it was chaos. So, you get it, but you have to looked 50 years back in time to really get it.

[@nordboya1656]

@@MrRondonmon I think, yes really. The film was made in 2007, whatever it is saying about the world - it is saying it about the world of 2007. Within the context of the fictional world then yes its about looking back from then, but it is also about the contempory world of 2007, and because good art is timeless its also about the world of today.

[@MrRondonmon]

@@nordboya1656 Mmmm, NO, look at all the cars, you will not see a car on the whole movie past 1980. No cell phones, no new cars, the car that burned up was a 77, they were using a "Transistor to track the money with" LOL, you have to be kidding me to not know this was set in 1980. Also, these "tuff wars at the border" had bee going on 30 plus years by 2007, it was only NEW at that point in time (1980ish) modern Sheriffs are equipped with Machine Guns and Armor piercing bullets, etc. etc.

[@nordboya1656]

@@MrRondonmon Yes, of course it is SET in 1980 LOL. But the Coens made the film in 2007 and whatever they had to say - through the medium of a film set in 1980 - was about the contempory world. That was true in Ancient Greek drama and it is true today as well! You don't have to agree, I guess, (although... I am right in this lol) but at least try and understand the concept.

[@MrRondonmon]

@@nordboya1656 No, you don't set a film in another era then not point unto that era for all of the life lessons learned. Its like setting a Western in 1878 and pointing towards todays era with cars and planes. Its nonsensical reasoning.

[@enidrobertson4858]

If you think of Chiguhr as Death, the movie shows us that our mortality is inevitable. Chiguhr is relentless, cold, determined and indifferent all at the same time. We often think about our mortality - how we will die - especially as we become "old men", but death does not care. Death does not care if you were good or bad or uninvolved or a bystander or just a elderly mother who got cancer.

[@robogreek3157]

I don't think death limps and needs a shot. 😂

Gotta say, out of all the reaction videos to this movie that i've viewed, you two by far are the most keenly perceptive and therefore gave the best synopsis/explanation that I've seen to date..... great job! Just subscribed and am eager to watch many more....

[@MJoy4Fun]

Wow, thank you!

[@GetMeThere1]

Yes, Tess Harper played Jesse's mom. She's in a GREAT movie that I know you would LOVE: Tender Mercies (1983). It's one that I haven't ever seen a reaction to, but believe me, it's a great movie, you will love it, and it would make an excellent reaction video.

[@davidryan1295]

It gave Robert Duvall Oscar for best actor & I believe Horton Foote, for best screenplay.

[@clarencewalker3925]

She's a fine actress not seen for far too long.

[@taztaztaz]

yes!! an overlooked classic!

[@brxan3096]

I liked the fact that she noticed Tess Harper...not many of the other folks I've seen react to this & Breaking Bad made that connection. It's something I do when watching films & shows...I often/mostly unintentionally find myself trying to remember where I saw certain actors/actresses before. Also, the guy that was talking to Tom Bell towards the end of the movie, Ellis....He was in Better Call Saul, I forget the character's name but I believe he was the guy that refused to be evicted off that plot of land where Mesa Verde was trying to build their new branch in New Mexico.

[@lynnie6633]

When Woody Harrelson's character was telling the guy there was a floor missing in the building, he was joking. High rises in the US usually don't have a 13th floor because of superstition, it goes from the 12th floor to the 14th floor.

You both did such an amazing job of dissecting the movie. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone pick up so much on a first watch.

[@seansersmylie]

Marion, you have done a fantastic job of working out what the film is about on your first watch. It's an incredible film but I think There Will Be Blood is better. Both are cinema masterpieces.

[@mrkelso]

Yes, I came to compliment Marion also, that is excellent insight on the point of this movie. Most do not understand and don't bother to work it out. Two details: you do know whether the wife was killed... when does Anton look at his boots? And, the last scene, so perfect for Marion's analysis: like the God comment earlier, the sheriff dreams his father went ahead of him, to make the world warm and comfortable... and, then he woke up. An amazing final line. Good job, Marion!

[@ryanfreeborn4252]

Mexicans get the money back. Protagonist is killed. Bad guy loses. This movie is 'unpredictability' in a nutshell. We have control over nothing in this world.

[@MrRondonmon]

In the late 70s early 80s Mexican border areas saw a rise in crime because of the cartels who were smuggling drugs into the USA. That is why Tommy Lee Jones was the main character and why the movie starts ad ends with him. "Sugar" had principle, in his own way. He killed for reasons he saw as just (LOL) not just to be killing.

[@harryrabbit2870]

Really good reaction, guys. You both made some very good points about this movie. I think Joy's point is spot-on about how people act as though the world is never going to change...but it does and we cannot stop it. Marion's point is also really excellent. Look at the randomness of the violence (highlighted by Chiguhr's coin tosses) in this movie to the point where even the cold-blooded murderer, who lives by a perverted code of his own, is just as subject to the random nature of violence in this existence. The characters try to bring order to the world, each in their own way, and all fail.

[@Gallo_1.6]

his wife plays Diane in Trainspotting

[@kennethjoseph6362]

33:49 funny you should mention the MCU, the character who played Llewyn Moss (Josh Brolin) played Thanos. another great reaction to an amazing film! 👍

[@swish007]

you were right.. carson WAS a dangerous guy. the characters in this movie are either wolves or cattle. Chigurh happened to be the strongest wolf, but I'd argue the Sheriff might have been just as strong; but he's an old wolf and he trails behind it all. (no country for old wolves). Moss hurt Chigurh physically which is no small feat, but I'd argue that his wife Carla Jean hurt Chigurh the most. she refused to call the coin toss and told him the unvarnished truth "the coin don't have no say, it's just you," which imo shook his whole worldview and weakened his faith in his insane "code." that's why he got in that wreck after he kills her

[@MrGpschmidt]

One of the Coens' best films with a truly outstanding cast . If you didn't notice there is no musical score. The ending I think you both figured out - pretty much the world is cruel and never really changes even if you do in the process either for the bad or the good - sometimes you have to choose or it is destined for you. Arguable overall.

[@byronjones7263]

Man in wheelchair, sheriff's father. Tells him world changes and waits for no man. = No Country for Old Men. Randomness of life's lottery. Makes no rhyme or reason, sometimes. No matter how hard we try or best intentions. Outside events can make us win or fail. Does that help? Bad guy (Javier) from this role got the bad guy role in James Bond 007 Skyfall. True Romance hahahaha

[@patmcgroin6916]

Yay!!!!! Anton Chigurh. One of the greatest film bad guys of all time. And Javier Bardem is such a decent guy, lol.

[@thunderstruck5484]

I believe Ellis the guy in the wheelchair who the sheriff went to see was his uncle, an old retired Sheriff or police officer, one of the best scenes n the movie

[@unclebounce1495]

Great reaction. But Llwellyn wasn't found/ended because of the mom. It was because of the wife. The mom revealed only where she and the wife were going. The wife revealed the truth at the public phones to the sheriff, so he could go "save him." If she had just kept faith in her husband, he might be alive. Loose lips, and all that. Most people miss this. Good reaction as usual!

[@chickmcgee1000]

Cormac McCarthy, the author of the novel, of the same name is worth looking into. There is also a movie, The Road adapted from McCarthy’s novel, worth looking at. McCarthy passed away in the past year. Was considered by many to be America’s greatest living author.

[@wheelmanstan]

Tommy Lee Jones is in a film called Three Burials for Melquiades Estrada that's a must see. But yeah, nobody plays authority figures better than Tommy Lee Jones.

[@MJoy4Fun]

gotta watch that one for sure!

[@00Spiral007]

People want to talk about how good this movie is critically, and I agree. BUT -- I hated this the first time I watched it. It made me so angry. I thought we were getting ready for this really realistic but epic shootout for the end. And everything was so well done, but the twist mid way, I was lost. And that intense feeling stayed with me. It made me think that I was wrong for not liking it, so I rewatched. And rewatched. And rewatched (not at once, but over the years). Every time, I'm more appreciative of how it shuns normal film conventions and isn't afraid to confront the ephemeral nature of true violence and the chaos around it. But it took a while to draw that out, and it took prodding from outside. Not one I have in any normal rotation, but a great piece of challenging cinema that creates interesting conversations. It's dry, but if you stick with it and can get over the twist, it's really got a lot to say on big themes.

[@mrkelso]

Congratulations for your nagging voice in your head, telling you, there's more here... yes, this is a work of art, not a traditional movie. The same is true for There Will Be Blood, and it's positively bizarre that they were filmed in the same location, at the same time, by chance. Wild.

[@jeffsherk7056]

Anton Chigurh is armed with a semi-automatic shotgun with a sound suppressor attached to the end of the barrel. I don't know if this weapon is real or fictional. I guess that you could build this weapon, but that the suppressor would not muffle the blast from a shot gun well at all. Mr. Moss has a Winchester model 1897 pump action shot gun. Both are 12 gauge, and both men fire 00 buckshot (9 32-caliber pellets per shell).

[@TheNeonRabbit]

The shotgun silencer didn't exist so they made the prop gun custom for the movie. Some people have started making them now because it looked cool in the movie but you can't muffle the sound of a shotgun nearly as well as was portrayed.

A *fun* western with a very young _Kevin Costner, Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, John Cleese, Jeff Goldblum, Kevin Kline_ and more. Written and directed by *_Lawrence Kasdan.¹_* Another Western worth watching IMO is *The Quick and the Dead* (1995) starring _Leonardo DiCaprio, Russell Crowe, Sharon Stone_ and _Gene Hackman._ While not western related, I also recommend *The Mexican* (2001), starring *Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts* and *James Gandolfini.* Truly delightful. *_The Abyss_* (1989) Dir by _James Cameron._ With _Ed Harris, Michael Biehn_ (Reese from Terminator & Hicks from Aliens), _Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio._ Be well! 🙋🏼‍♂️ ··•●✺●•·· ¹ ─ Co-writer of the _Star Wars_ films _The Empire Strikes Back_ (1980), _Return of the Jedi_ (1983), and _The Force Awakens_ (2015).

It then fell fairly sharply, bottoming out at the 27,929th most popular in 2006. It took a sharp turn upwards in 2007/2008, (probably because of this movie) and currently sits at 13,909th.

[@Ceractucus]

Fantastic reaction for both of you. This movie is hard to track. And you are absolutely right there are no heroes in this movie, it's realistic that way. Marian (sorry don't know the spelling), I've been wondering where you were from and whether you were in the military since I first saw you both. My mystery about where Joy was from was answered over a year ago when she mentioned it. : ) You mentioned Romania, and shells, so I'm assuming you were in the military (or maybe a policeman), and I guessed you were from a Baltic country (first guess was Russia, but changed that pretty soon). When Chigurh goes into a room, turns the light off leaves and quickly re-enters, turning the light on, he is practicing the act of forcibly entering such a room (since the rooms are the same). He now knows where people would be and knows where people waiting for him would be. He knows where he needs to stand to shoot into different parts of the room etc. Chigurh closes the shower curtain before shooting the man to stop from getting hit by the blood. When Carson Wells says "I counted the floors from the street to here and one was missing", it's a joke about how a lot of buildings with 13+ floors label floor 13 and floor 14 because of the bad luck associated with the number 13. I think when Chigurh blows up the car then walks into the drug store he does so to get prescription items without a prescription. He can't show up at the hospital shot, to get the prescriptions because that would cause the police to get involved. It is never verified for sure whether Chigurh killed Carla Jean, but I think he did. He is obviously checking his boots for blood as he leaves the house.

[@roger5322]

The # 13 is considered bad luck. So when they build skyscrapers the elevator has no 13th floor.....10,11,12,14,15... ect Did anyone else notice that the money was all $1 with a $100 on top. Someone was pulling a fast one at the drug deal. That's why it went sideways.

[@t0dd000]

McCarthy's book is just amazing, by the way. As are all of his books. Even though the Coen brothers essentially just translated it word for word to the screen, if you have seen the film, it's still worth the read.

I think this movie and Billy Elliot have the most incredible final scenes. I love Tommy Lee Jones recounting his dreams - just a beautiful and lyrical way to end the story. I'm a huge Cormac McCarthy fan, and I'm not surprised he came up with this awesome ending.

[@ncored21]

Anton is the personification of Fate. He's generous with the coin toss, giving people the opportunity to change it. Moss represents Chance, it was by this he found the money etc. Sheriff Bell represents Order, but when Chance meets Fate, he feels "overmatched," he has no choice but to bow out, hence No Country For Old Men. Ps. Heads on the coin toss is always right cuz the point is if you use your HEAD, you won't end up on the TAIL end of the barrel.

One gives the shirt off his back, then takes the "blood money" (before the 80s it would be really hard for a kid to spend a $100 bill, especially with blood on it, because the people who handled money were adults) - In the 80s, with all the franchises and malls, kids became the one's who handled money - After the blood money was accepted, and they started arguing about it... they were corrupted.

When Javier Bardem was interviewed about his role of Anton Chighur and was asked about the haircut he would have to wear movie, he was quoted as saying “I knew I wouldn’t be getting laid for the next 2 months.”

The movie was made by 2 Brothers. They are the Coen Brothers. Look them up they have made some great movies. Nicolas Cage was in one of their movies. The movie was called Raising Arizona. Their movies always have really good Characters. I love your Reactins because you guys really get into the movies. Patrick from Wilmington Delaware

My favourite movie ever and the most realistic thriller you ll ever find .. the acting the landscapes the atmosphere the details the silence the suspens the message in it.. this movie is deep

[@hoon_sol]

Yeah, extremely "realistic"; what have you been smoking? None of this is "realistic" at all.

It’s pronounced “loo-well-in” it is a Welsh name. It means “like a lion” and was a common name for the last welsh princes before they got conquered by the English.

I wouldn't take the money. That's the Cartels money. I wouldn't even had went down there to the trucks. I would have walked away and NEVER said a word to anybody.

Scottish actress and Spanish actor with heavy Scottish and Spanish accents successful hid their accents. Javier won an Oscar for playing the killer.

You say there is no hero, yet you understood that the movie was really about Sheriff Tom Bell. If you must have a hero, it's the Sheriff. At the beginning, he says, "I'll be a part of this world." Yet after this business with Llewellyn, he retires . . . because the nature of crime has changed, has left him behind. And you ask about the ending. There are two dreams. The first is about the past. The second is about the future. "And then I woke up."

[@theTemplar08]

U couldn’t spend that money because it’s sequel bills from a bank. The feds know where it can from.

13 is considered an unlucky number. A lot of buildings don't have a marked 13th floor.

[@TheNeonRabbit]

Tommy Lee Jones played Harvey "Two-face" Dent, a psycho who decided whether or not to murder people by flipping a coin in "Batman Forever".

[@woahhbro2906]

The author of this story really focuses on the concept of fate in his stories. What's interesting is when "the good guy" tries to get help from a stranger, he's told to hand over money, but "the bad guy" gets handed a shirt for no charge right after the car accident. It's an injustice, but that's fate. Brutal reality. Some people feel they are owed a good outcome when they play by the rules but you could be an absolute angel and life could still strike you down in the most henious way and bless those who are complete monsters. This writer's stories have basically shattered my worldview and I don't know if it was for the better 😂

[@Greybeardmedic]

I am sorry, but there is no way in hell that a former soldier, and a hunter would be out in the heat and sun like Texas without any WATER! I am calling BS.

[@tentoesdownchristianity]

You guys should react to Lonesome Dove. In my opinion it's the greatest western ever put on screen. It's a small Mini series or a very long movie however you view it.. There are 4 episodes. Total run time 6 hours 13 minutes.

[@VoluntaryistJapan]

You guys are so smart. I love you guys. Yes. This movie makes you decide everything.

[@rufus-t415]

I did not get the movie the first time watching. After rewatching, I love the movie.

[@EgbertWilliams]

Moss grew up hunting and shooting and served two tours in Vietnam. He had skills, but he was alone against a psycho and a whole cartel.

[@EgbertWilliams]

The bringing water back to the guy is the one really stupid part of the movie. How much good is that to a shot up man? Make an anonymous call and get him an ambulance.

[@tonysaourn9220]

What's creepy about this movie is how bad is that guy haircuts and carrying a oxygen tank.

[@longfootbuddy]

i keep seeing the same floor tiles in famous movies that my grandma had in her house

[@АлексейШелудько-я5л]

there was no chigurh, only sheriff's perception of the cartel and whoever second side is. Sheriff just didnt quite get it

[@conureron3792]

Need to check out Kevin James as the “sound guy” on the set - doing the gas station scene….it’s funny but equally intense.

[@joegarza49]

You guys are fun to watch movies with. I can't place your accents, which country do you all live in?

[@joegarza49]

Chigur killed the hunter's wife. That's why he checked the bottom of his boots for her blood.

[@sheryldalton8965]

In the book Carla Jean called the coin toss but got it wrong so he killed her. Also when the sherrif goes into the motel room Anton had just left with the money & was watching from his car in the parking lot.

[@TheWindcrow]

Marion, you were correct it was marks from the briefcase not the rope and I do believe it was scratches or rubs in the metal.

[@ItsMe-cz1pi]

You're gonna love James Bond Skyfall when you get to it.

[@russell-gt1dy]

He goes 'agua por dio' I guess Llewellyn didn't want to disappoint God

[@t0dd000]

After Casablanca, this is my second favorite film.
