Overview

No Country for Old Men is a 2007 neo-Western thriller directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, based on Cormac McCarthy's novel. When a hunter stumbles upon a drug deal gone wrong and takes the money, he sets off a deadly chain of events as the terrifying hitman Anton Chigurh, played by Javier Bardem in a career-defining Oscar-winning performance, relentlessly pursues him across the Texas landscape. Relentlessly tense, philosophically rich, and featuring one of cinema's greatest villains, this Coen Brothers masterpiece won four Academy Awards including Best Picture and remains a landmark of American crime cinema.
