What was the significance of this scene?
>>206051957Llewellyn is a douche
>>206051957I couldn't tell ya
>>206051957He let his guard down.
It literally explais how he dies. He went to fuck her, drug dealers interrupted then shot him.
>>206051957He got distracted by pusy
>>206051957He relaxed
He lost the protection of God, up until this point he was protected by Jesus but by giving into the lust and without time to repent, he was immediately killed
>>206051957God judges us and the devil lays it bait. Yuppie.
>>206052194>>206052214based Christfagsthese sinners ITT will get their's
>>206052194But the whole movie is about him giving into greed
>>206052033Retard
>>206051957>>206052033You see the lady again by the pool and she's dead.
>>206052284Your bitch of a mother
>>206052259He was righteous in his actions up until that point, it's not like he stole the money - the guy was dead
>>206052314FUCK YOU BLOODY BITCH BASTARD FUCK YOU BENCHOD BLOODY
>>206052194>>206052214This is what actual dementia looks like.
>>206052462You’re being judged right now. Repent before a serious misfortune befalls you, soon
He hadn't come until before he goes give agua to the mexican. Once he emptied his balls his cognitive ability suffered a hit and he didn't notice the killers closing in. Retain your semen
>>206052462>tips fedora
>>206051957It's a subversion of the usual storytelling trope that being faithful and doing the right thing will reward you. Llewlyn does the morally right thing here, and as a result the Mexicans find him where they expected to in his room and kill him.
>>206054657this. the anons who are saying he fucked pool lady clearly didn’t watch the movie (they die in two separate locations).
it's just a guy hanging out
mucho basado
>>206054657>It's a subversion of the usual storytelling trope that doing the right thing will reward youyeah, and if he didnt try to give the guy water he never wouldve got into any trouble. it comes full circle. he was presented with two ways to avoid his eventual fate, one at the beginning and one at the end, but he took the moral high road both times. makes ya think.
>>206051957being an easy cheap slut will get you killed by mexicansGood message.
>>206051957To establish that he had it coming.Pattern of bad behaviourHe got what he deserved
He wasn't really a bad hombre
>>206054739So how would that change anything if they both died anyway
>>206052194>>206052258Jesus fucked a literal prostitute
>>206052259He did nothing wrong until this point and even went back to give the dying spic some water.
>>206052194>>206052214>>206052258God couldn't have done that because God doesn't exist.
He was killed by God for giving in to his pedo desires with that child offering him a beer, and thus the chance to cheat on his wife with her
>>206052298I have been told in the book it was different
>>206052259How is it greed to take money from dead criminals? They don’t need it
>>206052194true
>>206051957that llewelyn only died once he betrayed his principles and was unfaithful to his wife. before that he was under divine protection.>>206052033the shooting happens pretty much immediately after this scene ends.you can see the cartel guy's truck pass by in the background while he's at the pool.
>>206051957He got agua
>>206054986Cormac was blog posting IRL
>>206056998>16>pedo?
>>206056998>16see >>206057281
>>206056998Jews get away with it all the time.
>>206057774based
>>206057774That's a pretty good calc score. I'm retarded it took my 7 times to pass that fuckin class.
don't get distracted by pussy.I like how the coen bros rewrote the scene to make it some poolside floozy and not a hitchhiking teen like in the book
>>206051957Beer leads to more beer
>>206058884The book scene makes more sense because he has an old fashioned kindness streak that gets him in trouble the whole story.
>>206051957Cartel honey pot
>>206051957Lots of Coen bros movies have themes of people doing something out of character or against their code and paying the ultimate price for it. Miller's Crossing, A Serious Man, No Country, Burn After Reading, etc all have examples of this
>>206059277the one moral character in the movie goes against his beliefs to help out the woman and gets killed because of it
>>206052033>have sex, get mex’dmany such cases
>>206059428He should have stayed a priest.
>>206059428I do not care for John Malkovich
>>206052194literally the movie and all of mccarthy's works are all about how God isn't real
>>206056998>this was considered white
>>206059913Pretty good in Con Air
>>206059913I love him
>>206059913Perhaps it's time to leave /tv/
>>206054986My respect has shot even further through the roof for him>Just imagine for a moment: You’re an unappreciated literary genius who has not even hit your stride before going out of print. Your novels so far have circled around dark Southern characters who do dark Southern things. You’re stalled on the draft of a fourth novel, called Suttree, which features an indeterminately young side character named Harrogate, not yet written as a runaway. You’re sitting by a pool at a cheap motel when a beautiful 16-year-old runaway sidles up to you with a stolen gun in one hand and your debut novel in the other. She reads in her closet to stay out of violence’s earshot. To survive her lonely anguish, the wound she’s been carrying since age 11, this girl has only literature to turn to: Hemingway, Faulkner, you. She flickers with comic innocence yet tragic experience beyond her years and an atavistic insistence on survival on her own terms. She has suffered more childhood violence than you can imagine, and she holds your own prose up to you for autograph, dedication, proof of provenance.
>>206052194The same thing happens to Bobby in Sopranos. Uncle Jun taught him everything he knew, allowing him to become Underboss, then when Jun is going to a public asylum for his dementia he decides to by a fucking toy train instead.
>>206052194God was protecting him while he stole Mexican drug money?
>>206051984Keep it up.
>>206052258>>206052214>>206052194>xtiansBiggest faggots on the planet
>>206054657>>206055465How is giving a cartel member water "moral?" If anything, he should've left him there to rot.
>>206051957First time in the film he seemed to lose focus. >>206052194Pretty much this. >but muh nihilism Shut up. At any rate it's a common coens theme so there.
>>206070667moss was a veteran he came face to face with the enemy lots of timesIf I may quote a kubrick film: "These gooks we waste out here our the finest men we'll ever know."
>>206070667Slave morality
>>206059913he's decent in In The Line Of Fire because his character is supposed to be an ugly weirdo
>>206070779Why would you give honor to a dishonorable man? Cartel members cause so much pain and misery not to mention the drugs they sell which wreck peoples' lives. >>206070794The Niezchian thing?
>>206070884>Why would you give honor to a dishonorable man? Cartel members cause so much pain and misery not to mention the drugs they sell which wreck peoples' lives.Cartels were kind of an up and coming phenomenon in the 80s anon and the man was dying. I'd bet Moss had some honor code thing to help the dying.
>>206070884Yes inability to act in ones self interest
>>206051957More like no country for old women
>>206052284>>206056814Anon is right, in the book its more detailed and obvious, he starts hanging out with the girl because she's on the run and its sort of set up like she's going to become a part of the story going forward, then they both get promptly killed
>>206051957>Hey grandma, here is the address to the motel I'm staying at, bring Carla-Jean and don't do anything that an old senile person might do to jeopardize or reveal my location to the dozens of cartel hitmen undoubtedly combing the streets of downtown Del Rio for any sign of me.
>>206059913He's an excellent actor but too much of one, has no thoughts for himself.Saying the US should bomb your grandma because the country felt like it is just mindblowing
>>206070884Armed cartel members in the 80's were booze and electronic smugglers at most, the real deal was smuggled underground or by airplanes under US permission.>drugs they sell which wreck peoples' livesThey sell it to bigger head honchos inside the US, cartels do not distribute on the streets here, someone else is doing the selling. People seem to retarded to understand that fact.
>>206058884They were trying to cover up for McCarthy hooking up with teens in real life when he was in his 40s
>>206070116>assbornYes, you are.
>ctrl+f agua>2 results
>>206057774Special treatment. They're getting away with war crimes and a genocide right now, because muh holohoax six gorillion. And because they occupy literally every vector of power and influence in western civilization.
>>206076493Which was pretty based and romantic if you take the Vanity Fair article at face value. Imagine being a more or less failed writer in your 40a at a motel pool and suddenly this runaway 16yo shows up, your first novel in one hand and a gun in the other, and asks for your autograph.
