The Sequel to Badlands

Rating: Null/10 (16 October 2009)

The two films have absolutely nothing to do with each other, they felt the same way for me though. Actually this contains sort of a spoiler to badlands. Towards the end of Badlands; there is shot of a father holding a young child in his arms and showing him the cops take away Kit and Holly toward a plane, I always thought that the kid was Sheriff Ed Tom Bell in 'No Country For Old Men'. However, The details don't match. It might have been the V.O. or the vast acres of barren land or even the sheer anonymity in the murders, anyway Badlands and No Country For Old Men are the twin brothers of heavy silences. The Officer near Kit in Badlands says "You're quite an individual, Kit." Kit replies "Think they'll take that into consideration?" Anton wouldn't have answered the same way but Kit could have grown up to be Anton.
