No Country for Old Men

What an interesting coincidence: I liked this movie better when it was called The Misfits. They aren't quite alike - this movie tries to do more, for example, it gives us some flashy violence, and it's a lot scarier. But as far as the "you can't stop what's coming" theme, The Misfits was a more intense and articulate meditation on the idea.

I liked this movie a lot, but I haven't seen the Misfits (it always sounded too bleak). I liked how it was the young woman who refused to play Sigur's game, didn't try to outwit him, just refused to participate. Not that it got her anywhere, but still.
