You look like a young Nick Cave and it pleases me.

It's a reaffirmation that "pure evil" didn't exist as a motivation. Anton even has an intricate system to remove his subjective decision making from it all together. Also, who's Brian D?

the movie speaks against the idea of “rising barbarism”. it’s addressing the innate desire of older generations to live in nostalgia and consider their times “more civilized”. this mythology of the past is shattered by the end by Bell’s conversation with that old guy in the shack. violence has always been here. it always will be. i think there’s also intent in setting the movie/novel in 1970, a time greatly considered by boomers to be something great. “the good ol days”. why? well, because they were young back then.

Wasn’t one of the points of the story that it isn’t “rising barbarism,” but that things have always been this way and that the ways of the “old west” are pretty much fiction?

Brian D in country for old men is fitting when you realize video game high school and mccarthy’s novel both depict young men stumbling through collapsing moral orders, grappling with “The Law” in this essay i will

I thought the point was how it’s always evil, never raising barbarism because it’s always been like that?

Tried to look up what you’re talking about and found out Woody Harrelson’s father was convicted for the murder of a judge on behalf of a cartel. And T he murder is referenced in the film.

I don’t know man I thought it was about the rise of new age criminality in a time in which two eras collide with each other with the old trying to keep up bet inevitably being left by the wayside. Sheriff Bell is the old man, Anton is the new with Llewelyn being the go between and in the end only Anton prevails with Llewelyn being dead and Bell retiring. Of course it could be about trying to measure the random entropy and chaos of the world. Bell decides to retire due to it and Anton tries to maintain control via a coin toss but in the end neither matters. Anton is still subject to chaos as shown with the car crash and despite the message of hope for the future as shown in Bell’s dreams he still “wakes up”
