No Country For Old Men (Centerpiece) Series: The 45th New York Film Festival [Sep 28 - Oct 14 2007] Director: Joel and Ethan Coen, Country: USA, Release: 2007, Runtime: 122 Cormac McCarthy’s tough, terrifying novel of violence, anomie, and masculine madness in 1980 Texas is brought to cinematic life in this throat-gripping yet oddly meditative adaptation, from the Coen brothers at their very best. Wearing an unforgettably frightening pageboy and toting a cattle stun gun that’ll haunt your nightmares, Javier Bardem is Anton Chigurh, a psychopathic assassin of the highest order whose detachment is as shocking as the carnage photographed so gorgeously by DP Roger Deakins. Tommy Lee Jones is the sheriff, and Josh Brolin is the man caught in the middle, but landscape and silence get equal time in this triumph of American movie-making. A Miramax Films release.
