September 24th, The First Day of "No Country for Old Men"

Today we began watching "No Country for Old Men", a feature film starring Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin, and Tommy Lee Jones. Only having had watched the first 30 minutes of it, we managed to gather a lot of useful information.

Set in the year 1980, while out in the desert hunting, Josh Brolin's character, Llewelyn, stumbles upon an aftermath of a drug deal. With no knowledge of the cause of the gruesome events, Llewelyn does some digging of his own and finds a case full of money.

In the midst of the Hunter's findings is a killer on the loose, Javier Bardem's character, who is later seen to be sharing interest in this precious case.

As any good old American town, when there is crime, there is law. Sheriff Ed Tom, played by Tommy Lee Jones, arrives to the scene and, with his partner, starts investigating.


In case you want to watch "No Country for Old Men" on your own for personal reasons, it is available on Netflix as well as in the Sparta Library.

The homework is to complete an assignment on Google Classroom. That assignment has already been posted by Mr. Rivers and is due September 28th at 7:15am.
