Old Man, That Is

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2012)

Fargo II: The Country of Old Man could've been the title and that would be cool since it had no continuity with the Cohen's other film.
I loved, LOVED, No Country for Old Men. And I'm not even a western kind of guy. Before you squint, this is truly a western.
The movie is not modern day. The film deals with multiples of outlaws and firearms. And it's even set in Texas. It contains all an old-west feel with twists of many story lines.
This Best Picture winner has so many story lines, in fact, that it's hard to nail a synopsis on it. Suffice to say, it's about a drug deal that went wrong, a man who takes advantage of it, a psycho who's smarter than the average robber, a cop on the way out and so much more. I've already given too much away. But, I will say, this is a gem that appreciates in value and cinematography.
Some might have a problem with the finale. Or even all the events leading up to the closing. I am not one of those people. And I will not ruin the "big surprise" of someone leaving the movie abruptly, but I actually loved that making this movie all the more original and fun.
Highly recommended. Just know, beforehand, you're headed into old country. When real stories were real.
