Quote: I thought it was a wonderfully made movie ...and assume that's at least partly what Academy voters responded to. But I recall clearly when I watched NO COUNTRY, how, after the ending, the audience, including me, sat there palpably nonplussed. That's an error the Coens made in rendering McCarthy's book (I gather), and an impossible one to forgive, especially in a Best Picture... For me, it was about the mood and tone of No Country. I found the movie to be far too negative, unlike Fargo. But I think this is what people like about the movie, its bleak negativity. I find the subtext of No Country to be all about the neverending despair of the Iraq war.
