I just don't get what was so great about that movie, other than being stylish. What's the point ? Hardly any dialogue, don't care for characters, random violent world metaphor gets old at 30 minute mark ? All their 80s movies, plus FARGO, and THE BIG LEBOWSKI, and MAN WHO WASN'T THERE, etc... were all better movies Yes, they were all better movies. Millers Crossing remains my favourite but No Country is just behind it. Quote:Coeh brothers have finally made it manstream - not in the least on the strenght of their earlier movies. And since Oscars are all about mainstream, they were rewarded accordingly. NCFOM was just good enough for that. I don't think No Country can be called mainstream not with how its ending pans out. -- "We just don't recognise the most significant moments of our lives while they're happening.
