Christa and I had our first date night last night since I lost my job. The entire evening only cost us $10, thanks to a Starbucks card and movie passes. The only cost was the babysitter.
We went to see the new Coen brother's movie "No Country FOr Old Men". Not a move which will easily slip from the consciousness. It's set up as a Western, but takes place in 1980 amid dusty towns and hotels in Texas. A hunter discovers 2 million dollars in a drug buy gone bad but there is one guy who knows who he is...and he's only of the best/worst bad guys in years. He kills because he likes it and carries a cattle gun with an air compressor on it. He kills about 15 people during the course of the movie. Javier Barden plays him. The one he is chasing is played by Josh Brolin. The world-weary sheriff chasing both of them is played by TOmmy Lee Jones.
There's virtually no music in the movie at all, which only adds to the gloom and mystery surrounding it. The tension is constant with the audiencealways wondering what will come next. Dark, dark stuff. Don't miss it
