No Country for Old Men

This is a movie I was very pleased to see it won the Oscars. So congratulations to the Coen Brothers!!!!

However this is one movie which taught me how immature i am at appreciating art. It showed me an interesting perspective of very purposefully not feeding scenes to the viewer and let him guessing what fate would have had in store for the characters.

Its the kinda of movie that does not let you sleep until you watch it again n again till you are tired of scratching ur head and reconciling to the fact that there may be no reason for what is shown in the movie than to show it the way it has been shown.

However, the feature which i would take back from this movie would definitely be the fact that the Coen Brothers didn't even need to hire any music producers or anybody of that sort as the movie just didn't have any music. The warm desert breeze was so calm and tense at the same time. Just the right setting for the movie.

The sound was so brilliant it actually made me enjoy it when i went for a mid-afternoon stroll in my campus. The sound of the warm wind blowing through one's ears is definitely one of the best things one can appreciate. It gives a lovely feeling of forgetting the busyness of city life.

It's like Mother Nature whispering to you but you just don't know why...
