Coen Brothers direct Cormac adaptation

(((The 18-year-old version of me has briefly been given control over reality))

"No Country for Old Men"
by Stephanie Zacharek, Salon

"No Country for Old Men,' Joel and Ethan Coen's adapatation of Cormac McCarthy's novel -- which plays the New York Film Festival this Sunday and will open in theaters elsewhere later this fall -- is a parched meditation on this changed West, an oblique thriller in which an enigmatic bad guy (played by Javier Bardem) stalks rumpled, dusty-booted cowboy Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin), who has stumbled upon and made off with a suitcase full of cash that also contains a hidden transponder that alerts the villain to his every move."
