he coulda kicked the barrel of the shotgun and fought for his life, look how close the shotgun barrel is to his feet, oh wait this isnt a steven seagal movie

[@henrybrowne7248]

@@b0zayActually I like to poke holes in the plot too. In reality desperate situations often result in an absolute mayhem of adrenaline-powered flashes of strength and speed. If you're in this situation, think this: the only chance you have is to take a chance you'd normally not even consider. You can pick your opportunity. My first thought [after several watches of course] was, when Chigurh comes to the bottom of the stairs below Wells, abruptly bolt up the stairs and get around the corner. I'd say you've got a better than 50 percent chance you get around it before he can fire. The loud blast might make Anton think twice about pursuit. In the hallway, though, you might be trapped if it's a dead-end, so that would be tough, for if you crouch just beyond the corner, Chigurh could probably just shoot right through the damn corner, though he would have to guess for any direct hit. . . I love this kind of speculative shit . .

Imagine they made a Joker movie with Anton’s psychopathic manners but with Joker’s iconic Smile

[@thebanhammer9554]

It’s ironic the phone call is almost like the other side calling Carson over

[@SalvadorSanchez-hq9hn]

yes do you ever hear something and think yeah that was for me

[@melvinmunson8331]

By the end of the Movie You're Convinced this Guy is nuts.They say he almost didn't do it because he hates Violence.Im sure Glad he did there was nobody that could have done it better.Thank You Javier you're one hell of an actor.And I'm glad you did the Movie it wouldn't have been the same without you

"Not in the sense that you mean" Most underrated line in film history.

[@shameemmohammed492]

Never understood this movie, what was I missing, just loved these guy acting in it

[@t-_-7defalt100]

what u dont understand

[@walf6978]

There's a lot of existentialism in this movie. Once you look more into what existentialism is then you realize this book/movie heavily touches on the themes and plays with the ideas of it.

[@raimundoarce7014]

I think the scene on the gas station, with the old man, the coin toss scene, an then with the old lady, summarizes the whole Anton's character.

[@knifelyfe6565]

Some of the scenes would make more sense to ya if you had spent some time in that part of Texas.

[@raimundoarce7014]

@@knifelyfe6565 Too bad I'm not even american... Thanks for your comment anyway. I guess the take with the "Texaco" sign is a hint...

4:40 Anton looking at Carson like "Geez whats his problem, I gave him a deal and everyth- oh, the whole You being dead thing"

[@edmondlau511]

Carson’s only chance was in the lobby of the hotel by getting loud and hoping Anton didn’t want to get spotted by others.

[@melcooper4029]

Exactly. Knowing how psychotic Anton was, there is no way I’d just walk to the room with him.

[@oldtwinsna8347]

I'm not even sure why he would walk around town like that to begin with, he already knew Anton was following the money equally as much as he was. It's a very small town , would easily have a run-in.

[@DaHatBat]

@@oldtwinsna8347 i think its quite realistic. He is shown kind of tired and burnt out when he is at the stairs which tells me he got kind of careless and felt lucky. ofcourse he had to pay the ultimate price for letting his guard down. also the fact that he didnt run immidetaly when caught was probably due to his critikal thinking being kind of stunted in a stressfull situation

[@morscovium8881]

I love his question at the beginning. like he is ridiculing all of the guys life choices because in the end none of it save him from that moment

[@waterdog1853]

Anton seems like a hoot to party with. Imagine him saying the stuff like that but replace money with beer

[@bobbyologun1517]

id say he does not have a sense of humor

[@sanghoonlee5171]

Carson sounds utterly terrified--but without losing his dignity. This is some of the finest acting Harrelson did.

[@joacalele123]

When someone ask me for my favourite movie, this one is the first that come to my head.

[@georged822]

One of the greatest villains in cinematic history

[@Uptomyknees]

I love that Chigurh is so assured in this scene, but when the time comes, he fails and is conclusively defeated.

[@bobbyologun1517]

yeah antons rule/code is self defeating in the book he looks in carsons trunk and finds it empty. so dumb!

[@kulio1214]

Defeated?

[@DreadMaximus]

He delivered the money, how did he fail?

[@deafgordon2187]

Very fascinating how they create these grandiose backstories without ever saying anything, they show you glimpses that woodys character was extremely intelligent and also a professional, and he gets the chop in a way that assures you that Lou Ellen never had a chance from Anton, it was going to happen one way to another

[@AllOneVoice]

absolutely perfect scene. chilling. the book is phenomenal as well, McCarthy is one of the greatest writers of all time

[@PrgMtkInferno]

“Decided to make you a special project of mine.” “Ok, take it easy man.”

[@derekmiles9069]

This movie was a masterpiece

[@KARKATELCESARENVIADODESA-pv4yd]

"If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?" It's so right Carson replied to him by calling him out, he wouldn't tell him and even if he did he's totally empty inside and his complete self-absortion and self-loss into himself would never allow his dried up brain to understand morality and correctness is worth losing yourself for. Exactly, that's it, losing yourself, a psycho would not be able to understand as that is what they hold dear the most. Carson, in one way or another, knew this. That's what you do with people like this... you say "no" and assume the rest, that's the right thing to do.

[@21DaHoagie12]

Uhhhh wrong, horrible scene, horrible acting, horrible actors, horrible film!

[@madscientistdan]

That smile at 0:42 almost likes he wants to start laughing hysterically that Carson could be seriously thinking 14 grand would enough of a motivation for Anton to spare his life.

[@slayerduval1]

Coming back to this.... I am blown away by Woody Harrelson in this scene. Just watching his sheer, sweaty terror fills me with anxiety.

[@J_GoTTi]

Anton was by far one of the most sinister villains ever made. The scariest part about him too, is that he’s realistic.

[@tethryss5001]

This movie is such a god damn masterpiece. The emotion on Carson as he realized he fucked up and stepped into a world he had no business is brilliant with the contrast of Anton's humor and curiosity is such gold writing and set design.

[@ronzolezzi6883]

Great touch with the blood.

[@owensmith3995]

The directors know how much people like you like to see it, even if it’s fake 😉

[@Mark-ni9ng]

My favorite part of this scene is how Chigur doesn't even flinch when the phone rings

[@arronjoseph5962]

At 4:42 Anton looks at Carson after Llewellyn tells him he's going to come to him because that does prove that the money will indeed come to Anton and be placed at his feet

[@77Creation]

Like, "See? I told you."

[@mj3332]

Even when PURE EVIL without a conscious goes up against evil with a conscious there is a level of respect. They both referenced and knew each others names in the conversation

[@baltbail1]

Does Anton’s rule that he’s following cause him to get in the car accident at the end of the movie? He probably shouldn’t have held carla jean accountable.

[@davidmcguerty8405]

"Not in the sense that you mean". Thoughtful line for a crazy guy.

Josh Brolin is bad ass too. "Decided to make u a special project of mine, u aint gotta come look for me at all" 👌

He was courageous to muster up the gall to say that but he had to do it while drenched in a shit ton of fear. You see it. He wasn’t badass but he was brave.

[@barbariansinbattle1687]

This has to be my favorite movie of all time. How Javier portrays the perfect psychopath, just gets under your skin enough to piss you off but at the same time giving him the respect of staying one step ahead of everyone. And Woody Harrelson, good god how he makes the cringe, nervous faces knowing he's about to die and there's nothing he can do about it. 10/10 perfect acting on both of their parts.

[@DirtyDishSoap]

Idk if it was intentional, but it looked like he timed the running phone. Silencer isn't completely silent.

[@BCC-cc8lz]

He’s a cold calculating veteran status hitman. He definitely timed that shot. And it’s great that you noticed as the movie dosent flat out tell you. It places faith in the intelligence of its audience.

[@vladimirhorowitz]

Play it back a few times. He fires just before the phone rings. So he either wasn't thinking about that or just timed it poorly.

[@CeeBee781]

So much of the dialogue is word for word from the book, including this scene.

[@Karibick]

This is one of the insane characters I've ever seen.. in the most wierd and disturbing sense. Breathtaking performance and pure talnet. Love it. Thx for sharing

[@ramirezlensonjosephwhiteca5030]

I was born in 2000. Me and my dad used to watch movies all the time. This one particular character struck me as a kid. He scared the shit out of me.

I barely noticed that Carson flinches & nervously looks over to the telephone, Chigurh just keeps staring directly at him. That’s so cold blooded :O

[@timewa851]

Chigurh even already knows who it is. (on the line) One problem at a time. I'm starting to like this guy. Woody was such a weasel. trying to buy his life with 14. Loser talk. No dignity.

Takes two to tango in a scene like this. Woody was solid in this film, too.

He won best actor award for this role. Anton, not Woody.
