Today, we continued to watch the film No Country For Old Men. In this part of the film, we continue to see Moss running for his life from Chigurh (The murderer). To start we see Moss shooting at Chigurh, who manages to flee with a wound in his leg. Moss, who was hurt and bleeding out, fled across the Mexican border. He stashed the case of money in weeds over the fence on the border. A passing Mexican band finds Moss on the side of the road and bring him to a hospital. Wells, a man also looking for the money, attempts to persuade Moss for the money in return for protection. Chigurh cleaned and bandaged his wounds in a hotel. He then sneaks up on Wells at his hotel and killed him in his hotel room. Chigurh promises Moss that he will kill Carla Jean unless he gives him the money. Moss gets the money from over the fence and planned to meet Carla Jean in El Paso.
While watching the film, we are analyzing the mise-en-scene elements of different images throughout the film. As we continue to watch the film, having some knowledge of film analysis allows us to analyze the film in ways we have not done before, and by watching the film, we are preparing to take the test this Friday.
Great details! Keep pushing that extension to the outside world, even if it means that you are only taking a singular part of our class' learning to extend.
