The coin toss scene is definitely a memorable moment. After reading the book by Cormac Mccarthy I can't think of a better actor to portray the character of Chigurh. He embodied the character perfectly.

[mdelar]

Yup, he crafted one of the most memorable characters in the history of cinema...thx for watching!

manny the movie guy- your laugh is scaary. even though i kind of like it cause it's funny, it's creeping me out more than making laugh. no offense. but the way javier looks in this hairstyle scares me a lot more than the laugh

[mdelar]

ha-ha-ha...I'm laughing now...didn't mean to scare you :) thanks for watching!

I wish Bardem had that silenced shotgun to use at the end of this interview.

[Muse31]

Holy shit......Anton Chigur could TOTALLY take Chuck Norris......

[roughwaytogo]

I would wash that hand REAL good. (after the handshake with the peter-puffer movie critic)

[kernreactie]

Hannibal Lector + Terminator = Anton Chigurgh

[nichoji]

@UncomfortableSilence Of course, that would depend on what genre you're writing in. But, yes, in this case I don't think either Cormac McCarthy or The Coen Brothers were attempting to portray Chigurh as an especially 'real' character; he's much more a force of nature. I think it was perfectly gauged, if he was any more or less 'real' then it would've compromised how engaging and utterly terrifying the character was.

[UncomfortableSilence]

@mercmarc I think you would be missing the point though.

You heard what Javier said. Which, by the way , was the best analysis of the character I have heard so far.

Anton is a symbol. The book is about how he and the other two characters cross paths but never really meet.

In a movie or a book, things are supposed to be real until you create a theme, then you start bending reality to fit the message you are trying to portray.

I hate the flashing videos! It's like a virus or something is wrong!

[thekatie40]

i loved the film and found his acting understated which only added to his to the charterer menace

[mercmarc]

I think theres a potential movie in the prequel to NCFOM. Just to find out how Chigurh became who he is.

[InsightVidya]

@mercmarc

He's not a normal "hitman" though. If anything he likes killing people, and getting paid for certain hits is just a bonus. Like at the start when he gets arrested. He did that on purpose just to see if he could escape, no other reason.

[ZiGiiiiii]

The interviewer is so strenuous.
