No Country for Old Men


Released: 2007
Drama, Crime
Director: Ethan and Joel Coen
Starring: Tommy Lee Jones, Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin
Running Time: 122 minutes
Rated: R

The breakdown:  A young cowboy finds a stash of money, drugs, and dead bodies in the Texas desert and gets involved in something way, way over his head.

This is a fantastic movie.  It won four Oscars including best picture.
What would you do if you found a ton of dead people in the desert where you were hunting alone? What if there was a ton of money involved free for the taking?  And what if there was one man who was slowly dying and all he asked for was some water?  These are the questions one cowboy answers and the results are compelling and fascinating to watch. I don't want to ruin any of this movie, you have GOT to see it.

5 out of 5 for being thoroughly well acted, fantastically thought out, and just plain stunning.
