In the empty stretches of the Texas borderlands, a hunter's decision to walk away with a satchel of cash from a drug deal gone wrong pulls three men onto a single collision course. No Country for Old Men, directed by Joel Coen and Ethan Coen, follows where that decision leads.
What is No Country for Old Men about?
Llewelyn Moss stumbles across the aftermath of the deal, bodies, heroin, and the money nobody survived to collect, and takes the cash rather than reporting what he has found. Anton Chigurh, a methodical, near-unstoppable pursuer, is sent after it, and Sheriff Ed Tom Bell works the case from behind them both, always a step short of catching up. As Moss runs and Chigurh closes in, the line between who is hunting and who is being hunted keeps shifting, and Bell's pursuit becomes less about the money than about a kind of violence he no longer recognizes.
About the cast
The cast is led by Tommy Lee Jones, Javier Bardem and Josh Brolin, with Woody Harrelson, Kelly Macdonald, Garret Dillahunt, Tess Harper and Barry Corbin completing the ensemble. Together they carry a story spread across small Texas towns, empty highways and the borderland where the pursuit begins.

Its chase plays out entirely across the American Southwest, where a single decision to keep money that was not his sets everything else in motion for Moss, Chigurh and Bell alike.
