    Damn.  I absolutely love No Country as well.  Lot of good ones here that are tightly packed together for me, but No Country is a top 3.

    No country was really good but not better than the others, to me.
    This movie is one of the better adaptations from a great book...such an amazing book and they really did it justice.

    It's too overwrought. The Coens spent so much time and energy adapting a Cormac McCarthy novel that they forgot to make a Coen Brothers' film.

    The subtle comedy in both RA and Brother are what I adore about them.  That wit.

    Subtle? Raising Arizona is pretty much a live action Looney Tunes, dude.

    Your fuckin' lady friend should find it a zesty enterprise -- that is, unless she's a fuckin' lady friend with a cleft asshole.

    "Son, theres a panty on your head"

    or 

    "Sumbitch...  That sumbitch"

    C'mon.  Those are subtle.  I can find a whole bunch of em in that movie.

    Depends on the types of movies she likes, but I'd say either.  Wouldn't shy away from having her watch with you though.  Great movie and would be one of the last two I'd vote off.

    What's the rumpus? 46% voting against. That's fucked!

    Oh well, my favorite isn't even a choice.

    If it helps, I love that movie. I have seen it more times than I can remember.
