No Country for Old Men (The Criterion Collection) [4K UHD]

Description

A deadly game of chance and destiny plays out against the stark backdrop of early-1980s West Texas in Joel and Ethan Coen’s powerful adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s novel. When he happens upon more than two million dollars from a drug deal turned desert massacre, a retired welder and Vietnam veteran (Josh Brolin) sets into motion a wave of senseless, inexorable violence as he’s stalked across the plains by a soul-weary sheriff (Tommy Lee Jones) and a psychopathic hit man (Javier Bardem). Winner of four Academy Awards—including Best Picture, and Best Supporting Actor for the indelibly disturbing Bardem—this darkly deadpan borderlands noir keeps both the tension and the existential unease mounting through each cruelly ironic twist of fate.DIRECTOR-APPROVED 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital master, supervised and approved by director of photography Roger Deakins, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackOne 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special featuresNew conversation between filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen and author Megan AbbottNew conversation between Deakins and associate producer David Diliberto, also featuring AbbottArchival interviews with actors Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin, Tommy Lee Jones, and Kelly MacdonaldBehind-the-scenes documentary by BrolinThree documentaries about the making of the film featuring on-set footage and interviews with members of the cast and crewEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPLUS: An essay by author Francine Prose and a 2007 piece on the film by author Larry McMurtry
