I like how Anton asks "If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?" But at the same time he suggests to have more dignity, as if it would have any use in that situation. I guess everything becomes meaningless once you're facing death.

@@AlpacaZ I think the comment "not in the sense that you mean" is classic.

Easy to talk about dignity when you're on the business end of that shotgun. Asshole Anton.

@@AlpacaZ Things have intrinsic value. Anton is a pure nihilist. The world doesn't tend to support that position.

It is very similar to the phrase in The Counselour" you have to acknowledge the reality of the world you are in".

he coulda kicked the barrel of the shotgun and fought for his life, look how close the shotgun barrel is to his feet, oh wait this isnt a steven seagal movie

@@b0zayActually I like to poke holes in the plot too. In reality desperate situations often result in an absolute mayhem of adrenaline-powered flashes of strength and speed. If you're in this situation, think this: the only chance you have is to take a chance you'd normally not even consider. You can pick your opportunity. My first thought [after several watches of course] was, when Chigurh comes to the bottom of the stairs below Wells, abruptly bolt up the stairs and get around the corner. I'd say you've got a better than 50 percent chance you get around it before he can fire. The loud blast might make Anton think twice about pursuit. In the hallway, though, you might be trapped if it's a dead-end, so that would be tough, for if you crouch just beyond the corner, Chigurh could probably just shoot right through the damn corner, though he would have to guess for any direct hit. . . I love this kind of speculative shit . .

But stills holds his composure. Great scene I like the delivery of "you can go to hell", he is defiant but also accepting his situation

@@chrispyle2942 Yes. He was definitely on the hot seat but he wasn't begging . . I still say he should have made a sudden move at just the right time . .

Wow. That may be even better than my response [above]. Takes courage but might catch Chigurh off guard. At the moment Wells turns around, notice, the gun is pointing down at the floor.

Sure buddy

@@joey6058" According to a January 2018 article in Business Insider, a group of psychiatrists studied 400 movies and identified 126 psychopathic characters. They chose Javier Bardem's portrayal of Anton Chigurh as the most clinically accurate portrayal of a psychopath." IMDB website

me after watching that 1 youtube short:

Its rather strange given Woody Harrelson becomes famous...the son of a man who's in jail for being a high level hitman for the mob in Texas, only one to assassinate a high ranking judge in American history and who some believe may have been involved in the assassination of President JFK. That guy...out of everyone...has a son who becomes a major actor in Hollywood and wouldn't you know it...he's great as bad guys and psychopaths himself. Almost like its genetic...almost like someone pulled some strings/owed Dad favor's.

You realize in this movie scene that Woody Harrelson is the guy that got shot, and not Anton? It is hilarious that you think the Texas Mob has connections with Hollywood in order to make Gay Woody Harrelson an icon of an actor

It was just the calmness the way he did it that I found so terrifying. Then casually lifts up his shoes so as not to get them bloody.

To be honest it didn’t really scare me because the scene is just so tense you’re on edge anyway

Famous last words.

@@77Creationbruh

The whole point of that phone call was to make him angry, so he would come after him, thus delivering him exactly what he wants.

Only angel eyes might be worse.

He’s just so calmly deranged. Even when he smiles it doesn’t look like a smile of happiness, it genuinely looks like a giddy to kill smile

good call , he was pretty brutal@@map3384

He’s dare i say…badass

His feet are light and nimble. He never sleeps. He says that he will never die. He dances in light and in shadow and he is a great favorite. He never sleeps, the judge. He is dancing, dancing. He says that he will never die. Man, cormac could write a vilian

I think it's more him timing the ring of the phone to his gunshot so the phone masks the noises.

@@allthetunes5491with a suppressor as big as a can of beans?

@@gemininosaga your anime profile pic leads me to believe you have no idea how loud a shotgun is. But we also need to consider Woody Harrelson's movements need to be masked by the phone. He's gonna get hit and make noise. Which he did.

@@allthetunes5491 blud got hostile over an oil suppressor

@@allthetunes5491 The shotgun wasn't that loud in the movie.

Nah she died because she's human. She was KILLED because a psychopath made it his intention to kill her. After his ultimatum was declined. She would have died regardless

Exactly I did think that. The first time I watched it I was in my late teens or early 20s and that scene especially when he said I'm going to make you a special project of mine. I thought this will be such an epic and glorious showdown with of course the good guy winning. Don't get me wrong I loved the film back then but I sort of hated the ending lol . I still love the film and watch it once every year since it came out and read the book a couple of times

I assumed they would have too, instead he *spoiler* gets killed off-screen by random cartel thugs - which is kind of brilliant and ballsy and real. Like Patsy said, it won't be cinematic.@@laurarules3642

@@laurarules3642 I think that was kind of the point though. The movie kind of makes fun of you for ever thinking that this guy ever had a chance in the first place.

yea Anton agrees to spare his life for the 14 grand, but the ATM only spits out 500$ so Carson is royally screwed 😊

​@@keith-kb1zl "I'll make it worth your while, take you to 28 ATMs"

in the book anton checked carsons trunk and found it empty. he thought carson was lying.

It was a terrible offer, few people would take it.

@@supremespanker yup, yet Anton was pretty sure Moss has no right or guts to refuse it. He's offered a man to bring him money so he can kill him, how dared he to decline, lol?)

at that point carson knew he was cooked, might as well speak honestly

​@@user-ge6uk3ll6pAnton is a psycopath, so he can't see anything from another persons perspective. From his cold rational POV, Moss only has one sensible choice, he's going to die anyways, so he kight as well save his wife by coming to Anton to be killed. But no normal human would bring themselves to be killed, Moss would rather take his chances on the road.

I never even thought about that good point

Maybe that's why Anton came up dangerously close behind Carson. The morphine made him overconfident. Besides, it's a depressant so it slows down his reaction time.

@@saleem2991it’s an opiate not technically a depressant.

good catch

I doubt it, he likely did a very low dose. A pro would minimize substances that would affect judgment and compromise everything. He would have everything closely monitored, even what he ate would avoid potent food poisoning from bad street vendors as explosive diarrhea would ruin everything he needed to accomplish.

I agree. Woody played being scared but tough really well. Can't be easy.

He knew he was a dead man already . So it didn't matter if he was nice.

It doesn’t take much balls-you know he’s gonna kill you, may as well get a few insults in whale you can

@@JoeSmith-dl9ok it takes balls

Yeah because kissing his ass and polishing his balls with complements is gunna save you. Might as well go out with a little dignity. The logic you people exhibit out here in comment land is fucking astounding.

@@JoeSmith-dl9ok foolish. obviously take balls, your istinct and your rationality even in a situation like that will push you to be in the safest position possible, wich is a totally passive and accoscending one, not surely a taunting or judgemental one. you can die in many different ways, he was sure to be killed, but the way he would die wasn't certain, that add even more reason to call you a fool to say it doesn't take any balls. you would had cry and beg for mercy, so be quiet joe.

Does he tend to be right about these things?

I like him as an actor but politically he is a nutcase and likely payed off. So maybe don't take advice from celebrities.

Woody was pretty nutso himself when he was running rampant with Jesse Eisenberg killing zombies. 🤔

My interpretation was that Chigurh was guessing that the call was Llewellyn and didn't need Wells any more.

@@henrybrowne7248 He concluded that about Wells before the phone rang. Hence the conversation

What are the chances I run into a Joy Amin comment lmaoooo hope you're doing well brother!

That's a good thought, but not the intention of the filmmakers or the actor in the case of this particular film. That silver thing at the end of his "Shotgun" is a Silencer made specifically for this film, because why would a silencer for a shotgun ever be needed in real situations? The one that they made , DOES actually work as you can hear, or not hear, That particular shotgun , which is the Remington 11-87 would have a very loud blast without that suppressor, so the armorer or effects technician really invented something that never existed AND it worked!

@@Valkonnenthe suppressor on that shotgun does not actually work, they had to edit in the suppressor sound effect in post.

@@willaguy1260 Right, they used Foley sound for any sound effects. my point was that the OP inferred that it was intentionally timed to the phone ringing to muffle sound. In the film, it was supposed to be a Suppressor/Silencer whether it worked in real life or not.

You aren't accounting for the noise Woody Harrelson might make.

​@@Valkonnen Have you even seen/heard a suppressed shotgun before? That entire firearm and suppressor is a film prop lol. The guy who made it definitely didn't create a working suppressor to use for the film and those sounds are clearly edited. In the novel Anton created the suppressor using an oil filter.

Nah. Overrated.

​@@ronlacker326Nah, it's justified.

@@user-jwl1mgjpd4 Nah, still overrated.

First time I watch it was really frightened me

jamie foxx as bats in baby driver for some reason scared me

I never found Lecter scary in the silence of the lambs but geez that buffalo bill guy was legitimately terrifying especially when he's prancing around naked to that song

Or at least show no fear. If the killer has a victim that isn't afraid of them or death, then the killer basically lost.

@@Bullboy_Adventures Exactly and that's exactly what Carson did here, he didn't give Anton his candy and took it to his grave.

As if the other guy thought he was about to follow civilised advice.

@@rufusgreenleaf2466 yeah man

In 1980, most people had never even seen or heard of an ATM. I think Anton's reaction was just basically his way of saying, "What the fuck is that?" On top of the fact that he didn't care one way or the other anyhow.

@@doorswhofanhe didn’t know what an ATM was at all. People always don’t get that part. 1980 rural west Texas ain’t having ATMs around

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure Anton was smart enough to know what an ATM was. I think he was toyin with him cuz b4 that he smiled the same way when Woody offered 14k when he's expecting millions from that satchel.

I totally agree. Chigurh was a real testicle shrinker.

I must have encountered quite a few psychopaths, because he just doesn't scare me.

@@briancrawford8751 You haven't met my ex-wife.

@@tiffsaver🤣

@@briancrawford8751 All right then . . who or what scares you?

Yup, but one thing he didnt do is trying to get away or attack Anton. He could have used the old trick like pointing behind Anton and be like "is this a rhino?" And inmediately upon ending the sentence try to jump off center line and tackle Anton. Chanes or surviving? Probably 0.0001% BUT thats still 0.0001% more survival chance than trying to talk to Anton. 😂😅

“Terrifying” to a point. They say when you’re shot that you don’t even live to hear the boom. But then again, - how would “They” know?

@@webcityguymyclubb4032if it hits the head its true. Because its basically like a KO punch. The brain goes offline before you can even register anything happening, so you dont even feel, hear or see anything. A KO punch is like having a movie cut happening in your life, like you stand infront of your opponent, then all of a sudden you sit in an ambulance and everyone is asking if you are ok. Its really like a cut in a movie, like as if 10 minutes just got deleted and you think like "what? Nothing happened, how did I teleport into an ambulance?"... that happened to me once, thats how I know. The same it would be with a bullet going in the dome. If it goes into the chest though.... ouch.

It's a little inconsistent that Carson already talked about Anton's character but still tries to reason with him. Surely trying somehow to attack him before getting in the chair would be the way

In 1980, you still could. 😀

that 70s showwith Eric and Kelso they both had that mop haircut 😊..Beatles made it popular 😊

what u dont understand

There's a lot of existentialism in this movie. Once you look more into what existentialism is then you realize this book/movie heavily touches on the themes and plays with the ideas of it.

I think the scene on the gas station, with the old man, the coin toss scene, an then with the old lady, summarizes the whole Anton's character.

Some of the scenes would make more sense to ya if you had spent some time in that part of Texas.

@@knifelyfe6565 Too bad I'm not even american... Thanks for your comment anyway. I guess the take with the "Texaco" sign is a hint...

Practically the opposite of psychotic. Colder than liquid nitrogen.

yes do you ever hear something and think yeah that was for me

Uhhhh wrong, horrible scene, horrible acting, horrible actors, horrible film!

id say he does not have a sense of humor

Me too

The directors know how much people like you like to see it, even if it’s fake 😉

The Coen boys are masters at creating memorable characters.

Chigurh even already knows who it is. (on the line) One problem at a time. I'm starting to like this guy. Woody was such a weasel. trying to buy his life with 14. Loser talk. No dignity.

The scenes I remember is when he first introduced the airgun and when the dog was chasing the guy and he had to fiddle with the gun.

Coen Bros.

Like, "See? I told you."

Then gets murdered later.... Kinda futile huh

He played the fool and it cost him dearly.

He's clearly scared when he says it. Like a child trying to act tough

​@@Smoked_CheddarWell win or lose, you still have to go about it that way. Can't let people push you around that way.

He was courageous to muster up the gall to say that but he had to do it while drenched in a shit ton of fear. You see it. He wasn’t badass but he was brave.

Exactly. Knowing how psychotic Anton was, there is no way I’d just walk to the room with him.

I'm not even sure why he would walk around town like that to begin with, he already knew Anton was following the money equally as much as he was. It's a very small town , would easily have a run-in.

@@oldtwinsna8347 i think its quite realistic. He is shown kind of tired and burnt out when he is at the stairs which tells me he got kind of careless and felt lucky. ofcourse he had to pay the ultimate price for letting his guard down. also the fact that he didnt run immidetaly when caught was probably due to his critikal thinking being kind of stunted in a stressfull situation

as I rewatch this film, I realize Anton had right to be sore & angry with everyone, so I'm flippin' alliegances. Anton, last Man standing!. kinda.

yeah antons rule/code is self defeating in the book he looks in carsons trunk and finds it empty. so dumb!

Defeated?

He delivered the money, how did he fail?

Yes that was Charles Manson with both.

Your not a psychologist

@@AY-qy4jn*youre* and a simple google search disproves you

He’s a cold calculating veteran status hitman. He definitely timed that shot. And it’s great that you noticed as the movie dosent flat out tell you. It places faith in the intelligence of its audience.

Play it back a few times. He fires just before the phone rings. So he either wasn't thinking about that or just timed it poorly.

Psychopathic but yes

He's not psychotic.

@@enekaitzteixeira7010 psychotic psychopathic killer.

Great observation

You go to hell

great analysis. prime example was Anton all bloodied after the car wreck. It was shocking, given his aura of invincibility throughout the film you’re thinking this guy is the angel of death then boom! he’s reduced to just another random victim of statistics. in the blink of an eye , just like you said, your number is called.. in a way his own chilling words he spoke to Carson , that his path in life had only brought him to this conclusion, in the same way applied to Anton too - he lived by the sword-choosing a dangerous life of crime and met his demise eventually. therefore dying by the sword. he dealt out fate to others, but fate turned on him in the end. “If the rule you followed brought you to this - of what use was the rule?” in the end , he was a victim of fate, as everyone succumbs to eventually

sociopathic, not psychopathic.

its pretense, psychologists making up a bunch of different classifications that basically all mean “crazy asshole”

​@@thenoblepoptart They have very specific meaning, very different from crazy asshole.

Ikr? From "psychotic", being the most unstable and those who confuse reality with their delusions to "psychopathic" being the most shallow people who have no empathy or remorse and therefore are cold and mentally stable... Those terms are still misunderstood nowadays 😂

​@@npvuvuzelanot at all. Anton is more like a psychopath: cold and calculating, his evil seems to come from his genes. Sociopaths, on the other hand, are not born evil, they are turned bad mostly by experiencing childhood violence and abuse. They are more implusive and more mentally unstable, unlike Anton.

He’s such a sadistic psychopath yet comes off as some what of a badass ngl

the thing is he does not exist, watch the movie again, it was Liewelyn Moss all the way

@@TheAvatarVV You watched this movie without scenes with Chigurh. I recommend watching the full version of the film.

watched it, Anton does not exist, he exists ONLY in the mind of Ed Tom Bell (old sheriff) who is the narator in the movie, and Anton is his portrait of killer that's all.. But the killer was Moss aaaaaaalll the way@@michaelnewman7468
