Tommy Lee Jones gives 2 great monologues, Javier Bardem does one. The picture was beautiful. What really won it over for me was how much of the story was told through subtext. You don’t see the shoot out with Josh Brolin’s character, you just pull up and he’s dead. And there’s the woman dead in the pool. And Tommy Lee Jones is never on the screen with Javier Bardem but the amount he knows about the killer’s character is amazing. You almost get the filling that he could catch up to him, but subconsciously he’s holding himself back since everyone else in his family have died in the line of duty. And this just paints what a sad terrible world he lives in anymore.
