No Country for Old Men is a 2007 American neo-Western thriller film directed, written, and edited by Joel and Ethan Coen, based on Cormac McCarthy's eponymous 2005 novel.
Starring Tommy Lee Jones, Javier Bardem, and Josh Brolin, it tells the story of a Texas welder and Vietnam
veteran to whom chance and greed deliver a fate that is neither wanted nor
denied; a cat-and-mouse drama set in the desert landscape of 1980 West Texas.
Themes
of fate, conscience, and circumstance are explored; ones that the Coen brothers
have previously explored in the films Blood Simple (1984) and Fargo (1996).
