Problem
Decide on an overall theme/message for No Country for Old Men.
Both the film and the book are masterclasses on minimalism through storytelling and structure. Highlight two sequences from the film/book. How did the film adapt these two separate sequences? Compare and contrast the book sequence and film sequence, breaking down their execution and intended effect. Do they achieve the same outcome?
Ultimately, are the book and the film telling the same story and delivering the same message? Do these adaptations do justice to the source material? Improve upon them?
