Reel Poppycock

Season 3, Ep. 11: No Country for Old Men


Listen Later

Unpack your cowboy hats, dust off your silenced shotguns, and get ready for Reel Poppycock's episode covering the 2007 film "No Country for Old Men." Based on the novel of the same name by Cormac McCarthy, this is the 2nd installment in our 3 film unit covering movies directed, written, produced, and edited by the Coen Brothers.

Does Javier Bardem's character of Anton Chigurh represent the best depiction of a sociopathic killer in the history of film? How much does $2 million dollars in tightly packed wads of $100 bills actually weigh? Does Carla Jean Moss intentionally goad Llewelyn Moss into a trailer park plow session with her big talk? Is this film really as freakin' funny as the Poppycock hosts say it is?

If you want to find out the answers to these questions, and so much more, then give a listen to this comical and insightful new episode of Reel Poppycock. Cheers!
