NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN
March 15, 2014  | By David Bianculli

IFC, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

This 2007 thriller is one of the Coen brothers’ darkest films – and dark refers, in this case, to drama, not comedy. Tommy Lee Jones plays a weary Texas sheriff, and Josh Brolin plays an opportunistic man who happens upon a crime scene that both provides him a potential fortune and makes him a potential target. Specifically, the target of a super-creepy killer, played with icy strangeness by Javier Bardem, who won an Oscar for his performance.
