No Country For Old Men

"I need you to step out of the car, sir."

In our inaugural, borderline unlistenable episode, we discuss the winner of the 2008 Academy Award Winner for Best Picture, No Country For Old Men, based on the novel of the same name by Cormac McCarthy.

Topics include Cormac McCarthy's literary career, Tanner unintentionally misquoting the opening line from Child of God for years, Blood Meridian, Westerns, Narrative Frames, The Unconscious, Intergenerational Conflict, the Coen Brothers' entire filmography, and osmosis between Cormac and the Coens' style and subject matter.

We also introduce ourselves and each rattle off 10 films to reveal our tastes, while desperately fighting the urge to seem cool.
