Dante's Inferno is outlined in the beginning of this movie. This scene is Llewelyn crossing the river Styx, the dog is Charon as the escort across the river, as Llewelyn further descends into hell. - the entire opening sequence of Llewelyn following the dog; Cerberus, the symbol of appetite and gluttony, to the edge of the cliff, where Llewelyn looks down and begins his one-way journey into hell by stealing the drug money for himself.
This is a great scene there's no question about it. I've always wondered though wouldn't it be easier to just grab the dog in the water and hold it under until it dies? Surely a full grown man wouldn't have to much trouble keeping a dog under the surface for a minute or so. For the scene to be good though they had to have the cleaning of the gun and would he shoot the dog in time.
A classic scene. Wish the Coen's did more action although they said this film was an excuse to get the action "out of their system" and they probably won't do a film like this again. Shame, although they had great material to work from here, I haven't seen action done as well and as realistic as this for a long time.
Just think, if he had just said to hell with that dying Mexican, he never would've been sought after and him and his wife would've enjoyed the 2 million dollars for the rest of their lives. Llewelyn Moss was a super bad ass, but I guess no one is perfect
Well not entirely, the suitcase of money still had the tracking beacon thingy in it. They would have gone after him anyways and he wouldn't have been expecting it prly.
@vladtepes97 it was kinda hard to get down there and the mexicans had a lifted 4x4 so they could get in and out. and werent all the trucks down there 4x4's?
@barcelona187, perfect film i loved it, but when the dog hit the ground it actually didn't look fake if you look closely the dogs tongue is moving and its mouth it's hard to tell on this but on HD you can see it clearly
Holly shit, filming a whole scene at dwan must be really fucking hard, because of the illumination... and the Cohen brothers filmed a complex action scene with shootings, swiming in dangerous waters and an animal! This scene is godlike cinema!
Would you have gone back to that crazy murder scene? fuck no, what an idiot he deserved to be killed. if he was so concerned about the dying guy he could have made an anonymous call to the police or EMTs, anyway good movie overall.
This is one of the finest films I have ever seen. My favorite scene is when Chigurh sees Carson in the stairs and follows Carson to his room to kill him. Carson reluctantly sheds a tear and says "You don't have to do this." I never knew Woody Harrelson was such a good dramatic actor! ...a dark, but brilliant movie
i normally love dogs, but the way that nasty ass pitbull kept goin after the dude when he was obviously runnin away pissed me off, so i was glad he blew that stupid mutt away
Hey man thanks so much for posting this vid. This is my favorite scene of the movie too, and also one of my all time favorite movie scenes. Its so simple, yet so powerful.
thats what made it soo cool .. he wasnt frantically cleaning and reloading .. he was doing it like a mother fucking experienced bad ass .. calm and collected .. no panic ..
@LordSpanky your right....very cool and very heads up. He takes his boots off before getting into the water and then when he is out of the water has the presence of mind to clear his weapon before firing and does this all in life and death situations..very smart almost a match for Anton...almost
@maven21 No..don´t think almost.Anton tried to take his life and threw away about 15 bullets on Moss,none of which hit. Moss only got injured cause he positioned himself infront of the door which was dumb..but when it came to man vs man,they were equals.Can´t factor in how many people Chigurh killed.Thats why a 2nd confrontation between the 2 wasnt that necessary.We´d already seen what happens when they colllide.The demise of Moss was chicken by the Coens.Should´ve dared to show Moss go down.

check the deleted scenes, my favorite one is the alternate puppy pwning: when the dog is about to bite lewellyn but instead he impregnates it before cutting off its limbs and tail while proceeding to snort its blood and roller skate through the desert wearing its carcass as a cape. No Country For Pit Bulls.

I always thought pitbulls had far too dense bones to swim in the water - they'd sink like bricks. Can they really swim that well?
dredericktotem1245 10 months ago
Getting out of the water is a bad idea. The dog can't continue biting you if you dive down with it.
Or better yet, dive down and pull it down for few seconds.
