the movie would have been better if he quipped a lot and then had a 20 minute dialogue scene with snappy witty dialogue culminating with killing anton and the cartel guys with a samurai sword.
He tried to help, he was just always one step behind the cartel guys. He even went out of his jurisdiciton to try to bring lewelyn back before the cartel got him but he was too late. like he said he was over matched.
Sheriff Bell got shafted hard in the movie. The book really fleshes him out and makes him the central character. It's a stark difference that makes the book well worth reading, among other huge changes
Writing doesn't have set rules that have to be followed at all times. The best writers knowingly break the rules consistently and with purpose for their aesthetic goal. It's okay that you got filtered by it, but it is a little embarrassing to be so mad about it you have to comment about it anonymously online
Problem with McCarthy is that all of his books are written like the Road, but the Road is the only one that works. His characters don't interact like human beings.
Not every book should be pure realism. Don DeLillo's characters don't interact like "human beings" either, but in the false there's a genuine truth. That's the point.
Good because the book is peak boomer apologia >Hey dad the economy is proper fricked rn It'll take me at least 4 lifetimes to afford my own home >THATS JUST VANITY A TALKIN SON, THE COUNTRY'S ALWAYS BEEN HARD LEARN TO GIVE LIFE A FIRM HANDSHAKE NOW GTFO OF MY HOUSE >I dreamed I finally had a livable wage, and a roof over my head.

He seems like such a wimp and useless, but he's every one of us in that situation. There is real evil and danger in the world, and most people go their whole life without ever encountering it outside of the movies, and we'd shy away and limit ourselves from confronting it face on if we did ever see it.
This is probably just my tiny smooth brained take but I'm just going to say this guy did do some stuff related to investigating the trail of violence related to the money, I can't help but feel he intentionally (or because he's actually holder) delays himself to the point of being unable to intervene because he essentially knows that his intervention is futile. It almost seems like he has enough experience to say "well if the games rigged the best play is to just not play at all" whereas the other characters are just trying to fight their own fates, or succumb to them
Yeah, he should have had a le epic shoot out with the drug cartel, then had a fist fight with Anton Sugar.
The whole purpose of the fricking movie was that he is no longer equipped to handle the kind of crime that exists in his modern world.
That was Tarantino’s criticism of the movie too. I just think he has pleb taste though
How is it a criticism? It told you right in the title that it was no country for him
It was no movie for pleb men

Or the coen brothers made cameos and said Black folk a bunch
that's why he's still alive in a No Country For Old Men™
He tried to help, he was just always one step behind the cartel guys. He even went out of his jurisdiciton to try to bring lewelyn back before the cartel got him but he was too late. like he said he was over matched.
the actual villain
He’s an old man in the no country. What did you expect?
Makes sense. I always thought was a no man in the old country
He was overmatched.

I can't read McCarthy. Fricking capitalize you fricking homosexual
that's a pretty embarrassing way to get filtered
Also a pretty embarrassing choice to ignore grammar.

Dying for the US government is like the opposite of dying for your people thoughbeit
How can people get filtered so hard by a pretty simple book?
McCarthy does capitalise you mongoloid

I was wondering when the plebs would show up
Sanctions buffoonery
>them youngsters sure are ruthless i tell ya

exists
He was meant to represent the viewer
He would piss his pants if he saw one gore webm on /gif/

Actually, he was the stand-in for my pessimism and he played that role well.
>Hack away you mean red Black person
He had a way with words that McCarthy
frick me I forgot he died a few months ago
All he does is explain to the audience what the air compressor bolt thing is.

thats why he retired, he realized he was ineffective, or outmatched as he put it
