They almost encounter each other. He’s hiding in the hotel room after Llewelyn is killed near the end of the movie. Anton is literally shivering with fear on the other side of the door. Somehow he disappears before the sheriff enters the room.
No Country is a film (novel) about how personal gain has supplanted spiritual morality as the driving force behind our greater human culture.
Josh Brolin embarks on this whole crusade just to secure his bag of money. Woody Harrelson is a self-described “day trader” while he moonlights as a hitman. Javier Bardem kills them both, but he’s terrified of Tommy Lee Jones because he’s just a sheriff who is simply committed to upholding the law as he sees it. As misguided as their respective motivations are (Anton is a psychopath with very black-and-white morals) they are the only two characters who are not driven by material gain. That’s what makes them both so formidable, in the context of the film.
I’ve rewatched this movie so many times, and this to me is the overarching theme of the story.
I didn’t want to assume you were a fucking islamophobe, but I’m not at all surprised. Go to hell, zionist trash.
Which terrorist organizations does the DSA support?
Your comment is informative but now all I can hear in my head is Green Day’s “American Idiot”.
You say the number is inaccurate, which begs the question: what exactly is an acceptable number of infant remains to find in an orphanage septic tank?
It’s just a very complicated issue. No way to say who is the aggressor
Meme-ing is surius biznus dammit!
He’s also a Palestinian immigrant who built his entire fortune from nothing. And you’re getting downvotes for pointing out the very real common refrains used against many entertainers of color. Everyone freaked the fuck out because Beyoncé put on a cowboy hat for chrissake.
It’s almost like all the most ignorant hivemind elements of Reddit just moved over to lemmy.world - glad they’re mostly confined to one instance at least.
Honestly, yes I think Steve Smith would be a worse governor than Bill Lee. Now, Marsha Blackburn on the other hand… also worse but also probably smarter than both. And I would feel bad punching her in the face but Kid, Steve, and Bill not so much.
Nashville musician here. Steve Smith is also widely considered to be the biggest piece of shit in the state. He fancies himself a confederate Tony Soprano of sorts. Really he’s just burnt-out coke head like his buddy Kid Rock.
Go to hell you fascist piece of shit.
It’s almost like you’re a straw man argument against your own point of view. Truly a parody of yourself. Impressive!
And now you’ve identified a major problem with vigilante justice, especially as it relates to csa.
I love that consumers might be causing financial pain to big corporations, however:
Target, Walmart, and Amazon have always engaged in practices that harm individuals of every color and creed. The fact that DEI has become the impetus for these boycotts is evidence of the extent to which republicans still control the narrative. Liberal media sources follow right in step and whip their audiences into a fervor as well.
In reality, these companies directly exploit workers all the way down the supply line and up to the point of retail. We’re supposed to be mad that a small portion of those being exploited won’t be as diverse? That really sounds an awful lot like some neolib right-to-work shit.
Amazon in particular. We all should have absolutely buried Amazon years ago. Better late than never, but getting rid of DEI is not even in the top 100 horrible things Amazon has done.
By that logic, if it’s not practical to protest every single injustice in the world, we just shouldn’t bother.
I’d say genocide is a good place to start, wouldn’t you?
Not even close to the same thing, but okay.
Your guess is as good as mine; I couldn’t speculate on the thoughts of mass murderers. The cynic in me says that shootings no longer represent compelling content to the average consumer, so it doesn’t get pushed as hard.
I haven’t looked up any actual statistics comparing recent mass shootings in the US, so I really can’t say.
