First of all, I wanted to say thanks to everyone for two days of very illuminating discussion on No Country for Old Men. Many of you brought up observations and ideas that I had never thought of or hadn't been able to express properly. In case you haven't had enough discussion of the film, I'll point you to a few other places: Here is Jim Emerson's blog -- Emerson, a film critic and editor of Roger Ebert's website, has written extensively on the film and went frame-by-frame through it with an audience at the Conference of World Affairs in Boulder, Colorado recently. Secondly, here's one of the few repositories of intelligent discussion on the Internet Movie Database. Normally, these boards are cluttered with the Commenters of the Damned, but someone has been nice enough to sift through all the garbage and compile a thread that includes insightful discussion for some of the most frequently asked questions about the film. I highly suggest checking these out -- if not now, hopefully later when you're not No Countried-out.Thursday, May 1, 2008
Do your Coen Brothers blog post ... friend-o

Compiling handy links to things - how blog-like of you. But that first link is really interesting.
I forgot to tell you after class, but in my proposal I forgot to list the three movies i was going to watch. I'm going to watch Bloody Sunday, Resurrected, and United 93. I've seen both the Bourne movies he did at least four times each so I'm not going to waste a selection on one of them.
