Logging

Film:  No Country For Old Men

I re-watched the mysterious scene of Tommy Lee Jones going back to the crime scene where Chigurh is apparently hiding behind the door several times.  The only explanation is that Chigurh is in Tommy Lee Jones imagination at that point in the movie - he is a "ghost" as referenced in the scene before.  The scene is physically impossible.  He cannot be literally behind the door, as the filmmaking suggests.

This is my favorite movie of the aughts.  I can't decide whether it's better than Fargo.
