Summary

Special thanks to the intrepid crew of Bald Move Commissioners who banded together to make this podcast happen; Keith Alejandro, Jen, Alex M, Matt DeRemer, Stephen, mydeardeadly, Andy G, Jefferson B, cocoa2mc, Gary Turco, Jasmyn P, Andrew K, Conner B, Martin K, and Geoffrey Bowser. Possibly the deepest commissioned roster we've had so far. And they had us review one of the greatest of the Coen Brothers productions, 2007's No Country for Old Men. What can we say? This movie is as beautiful, dark, and epic a Western as you could ask for. With an all star cast including Josh Brolin, Tommy Lee Jones, Woody Harrelson, and Javier Bardem, amazing source material from Cormac McCarthy, and stunning Texas scenery lovingly captured on film, it's easy to just let the movie and it's themes of fate and mortality sneak up and wash over you. Thanks a bunch for the commission, guys and gals, it was a pleasure. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
