It's Free With Ads, the podcast that asks the question, why pay Paramount Plus eight bucks a month to watch a bunch of dick-swinging Westerns when you could go online for free and watch a dick-swinging Western that will make you ponder death and miss your daddy. I'm Jordan Morris. And I'm Emily Fleming. I like those dick-swinging Westerns on Paramount Plus, but today's movie is no country for old men. The Oscar-winning Coen Brothers classic

with an ending so abrupt, you might think your internet went out. With us as always is the super producer, the he-freak, Matt Lieb, hitting us with those existential drops. What's the most you ever lost on a coin toss? A coin. Rawr! I should have added some Godzilla coin.

Yeah, totally. I lost a coin and one Godzilla. I never realized you could dance to this movie. It's got a pretty funky beat. For a movie with zero music in it. Yeah, you get a little bit of music at the end over the credits. Yep. Ooh, boy, the end over the credits. Yep. Ooh, boy, the choices in this film.

Yep. So many choices. But, hey, we're going to talk about No Country for Old Men, which is, as of this recording, streaming free with ads. But before we talk about that, we're going to talk about something else we saw for free on the internet this week.

Other free stuff. Here's a little piece of clickbait that we're a little bit late to, but I feel like we should discuss it. Okay. We owe it to our audience to discuss this. Sydney Sweeney has made soap using her bath water. It is now sold out.

It is from a company called Dr. Squatch. Cool. Dr. Squatch. Cool. Dr. Squatch, and so there is now, or there was soap that you can buy that smelled like sand, pine bark, and just a touch in quotation marks of Miss Sweeney's real life bath water. Now this is sold out.

Matt, how many of them do you have? Yeah. All of them. The thing is, unlike the iPhone, there wasn't a limit. Oh, OK. You were only allowed to get two iPhones at once, but they didn't think about the fact that Matt Lee would want all the bath water. So you just stayed up all night making Dr. Squatch profiles.

Yes, various profiles. You had 30,000 up in Windows ready to go. Well, there's a detail about this soap that is pretty particular. Do tell. Is the detail that I got all the soaps and then I was able to extract the DNA of Sydney Sweeney from it and now my own Sydney Sweeney clone.

So you're cloning her like a kombucha mushroom in your fridge. Exactly. She's my scoby. Sydney Sweeney, great for gut health anyway. No, the detail is that there's a hole in the middle so you could fuck it. No. Is there?ey, great for gut health anyway. No, the detail is that there's a hole in the middle so you can fuck it.

No. Is there? Yes. Is that real? Yes. I have not seen the soap. I haven't either but- You can fuck the soap?

Yes you can. If you have a dick. Yes. Well you can fuck, I mean even so. Hey, fingering story. Hey. Yeah, sure. You're in the soap.

That's right. Wow, I did not know. Fingering story. There it is. Yes. I did not know. There it is. Yes. I did not know that. Yes, there's a hole in it. I feel like she's leaving money on the table,

these things at, you know, when they were available on the website before Matt gobbled them all up like a greedy little guy. They were like eight bucks, 10 bucks, right? I feel like- Wow, that's it? I feel like she could have jacked up the price so much if just at the end of the little press release

where she's like, I'm just helping guys get into skin health. Right, if everyone else is jacking, she might as well jack the price. She might as well jack up the price. If just at the end of the spiel, she was just like, and I farted in the tub. Boom, 50 bucks per bar, right?

I mean, this is kind of like, was Saltburn kind of already did this whole thing with drinking it. So it's like, why isn't there a mouthwash with bath water in it? Or something like that. Oh, you can gargle with Sweeney. Well, why don't they maybe free with ads

should do a gargle. Oh yeah, what do you want us to do with our bath water? Yeah, what do you think our bath water would taste like? Sure. Not good. Don't let us know. A little bit of blood on my part. Chicken wings. So this happened a couple of weeks ago.

The bath water soap was released. A more recent article let me know that it is now on eBay for $1,600 a bar. Oh my god damn. $1,600 a bar. Oh my god damn, are you serious? $1,600. $10 soap you can now get on eBay for 1,600 bucks. It's like fucking Beanie Babies. Yeah, totally, but you can fuck them.

Oh, well, you could fuck them. Well, you could fuck them, Beanie Babies. With a little ingenuity, a little needle and thread. You can pretty much fuck anything if you set your mind to it. Princess Di, you were so beautiful. You were America's princess. The people's princess, you were so beautiful. You were America's princess. The people's princess, what did they call her?

Not America's princess. I forget, it doesn't matter. She's a ghost princess now. She's a ghost now. RIP. Candle in the wind. Well yeah, if you were able to get your hands on some Sydney Sweeney fuckable soap,

let us know, free with ads at MaximumFun.org. Hey, let's talk about No Country for Old Men. Emily, you're the first timer here. You had never seen this movie. That is correct. I've never seen it. I don't know why I'd never seen it. I think it's just one of those movies, like, the same year

that this came out was the same year that There Will Be Blood came out. And honestly, I could have gone without it. I could have. Sorry, Matt. This is going to be friction here. This is going to be friction. Yeah. I could have. Sorry, Matt. Sorry. This is going to be friction here. This is going to be friction.

Yeah, you're not a There Will Be Blood fan. No, but I enjoyed this movie more than I enjoyed There Will Be Blood. OK. Which the Academy did as well. The Academy did as well. I know. Look at you, Miss Main Street Views.

That's right. We're all Coen Bros fans here. We're all 100%. Let's go around the horn. What are some of the favorite Coen Bros movies? Oh, Oh Brother. We're all 100%. Let's go around the horn. What are some of the favorite Coen Bros movies? Oh, Oh Brother Where Out Thou is maybe one of the most perfect movies I've ever seen.

I like Oh Brother a lot. Agreed, agreed. That might actually be the best one. It's so perfect, yeah. I am, I'm a big Hudsucker proxy guy. Hell yeah. My best buddy in junior high, Mike Nguyen, we went to see the Hudsucker proxy together.

Weird movie for a bunch of like, for a couple of 12 year old boys to go see. But I think, you know, we were, I don't know, whatever, you just like to go to a movie. But we loved that movie and our like little catchphrase all throughout high school to each other was, you know, for kids. So that movie will always be very special to me.

It's a great movie for sure. Fucking Fargo head, I'm a Lewin Davis guy. It's gotta be the cat. You didn't love Lewin Davis? No, I didn't. It's gotta be the cat. You didn't love Llewyn Davis? No, I didn't. Oh, it's so good. It's got a magical cat in it. It's got a magical cat.

Yeah, but the music was meh. Oh, I love the music. I do. You know, I definitely don't. I was, like, reticent to see Llewyn Davis because I'm like, there's few things I care about less than, like, Bob Dylan era folk music. I was on board.

I was totally there. Well, yeah, because I'm a was on board, I was totally there. Well yeah, because I'm a big fan of, I mean the Oh Brother We're Out Thou soundtrack is kind of what brought Bluegrass back. Yeah, yeah. So that movie came out when Matt and I were in college. We both went to UC Santa Cruz.

That fucking soundtrack was in everywhere. Everywhere. Every dorm and store. For sure, like Gillian Welch is one of the singers in the Go to Sleep Little Baby, that song. Oh yeah. And she's one of my favorites in the Go to Sleep Little Baby, that song. And she's one of my favorites. I sing that one to my daughter.

Oh, come on. That's such a good one. It gets real dark. I don't think it's actually about telling a baby to go to sleep. Is it about drowning a baby? I think it's about murdering a baby. Party murder ballad.

Yeah. So murdering a baby because, and then killing yourself. It's good. Oh man, that's just what the libs want. Yeah, thank you. Oh snap, next on the blaze. Yeah, but yeah, Emmylou Harris and Alison Krauss and killing a w- I mean, I love it. I love that soundtrack and it's got a soft spot in my heart, but yeah, the HUD soccer proxy rules.

HUD soccer proxy, and I am such a Cohen guy that I even kind of like the bad ones. Like even the ones that people say they're- What are the bad ones? Intraubable Cruelty people say is bad. Yeah, I like that one. I like that movie a lot too. I even, you know, The Lady Killers

is not a great movie, but it's funny. Oh my God, I forgot that that was one of them. Yeah, so they have some lesser films, you know, but even- Garfield. Garfield. Ooh, stop. True story, Bill Murray took that role. He doesn't have an agent, but he got a call from-

He's got a landline. From, yeah. Yeah, you gotta like mail him the script or something. Yeah, yeah. He got a call from Eton Cohen, and he thought it was Ethan Cohen. He thought he was doing a Cohen Brothers movie, but it turned out it was just Garen. He thought he was doing a Coen Brothers movie, but it turned out it was just Garfield.

I love his assumption that they were remaking Garfield. Yeah, he's like, I don't know, they're into some wild shit. Well, I mean, they did like the Lady Killers and stuff, which I guess Intolerable Cruelty, I didn't know was theirs as well. Yeah, that's a little bit of a, you don't see their sheen on it that much. It's a little more of a down you know, you don't see their, you don't see their like, you know, sheen on it that much.

It's a little more of a down the middle movie, but I still like it. I wonder if that was before or after Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? And that's like the connection. It was after? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it was kind of probably a George Clooney connection.

Yeah, maybe. And I love that they just make a lot of movies. They don't make as many as they like these days because maybe they're kind of broken up. I think they broke up, yeah. There's a little bit of that, but I also love the Fargo TV series. I'm a big fan of the latest one.

I know that some people didn't like this series or season the most, but it's my favorite so far. But yeah, Blood Simple was like one that everybody told me to watch and I honestly cannot remember a goddamn thing about it. Raising Arizona. Well. Raising Arizona. Well, Raising Arizona. Oh, yeah, sure, sure, sure.

Of course. That's them too, right? I love, there's this, you could just name the movies and go, oh! Totally. Well, isn't it interesting that they haven't worked with Nick Cage since? What's going on there?

Get Nick Cage in one of your movies. Yeah, yeah, maybe that's what'll bring him back together to make a wacko Nicholas Cage movie where he's some kind of steampunk blimp pilot. Sure, why not? I'll watch that. Let's get Tim Robbins, George Clooney,

Nick Cage, Francis McDormand, Ollie Hunter, let's get the gang back together again. Jennifer, Jason, Lee. Hell yeah, dog. Steven Root can be in there. The whole fucking gang. Yeah. So anyway, the Coen brothers, cold take.

They're great. And we're going to talk about this movie of theirs. Starts out with some lonely shots of the West, Texas. That's most of the movie, by the way. Yeah, I know. Is Texas the West? I think Texas is the West. It's considered the West.

It's the South Middle. Right, but this is back in the day when I think Texas is the West. It's considered the West. It's the South Middle. Right, but this is back in the day when they didn't know how far west they could go. Yeah, they didn't know. Ah. Tommy Lee Jones, giving us some voiceover. He's a small town sheriff.

He's remembering a day when the old timers, the old sheriffs, they didn't even need guns. Andy Griffith, that's very Andy Griffith. Sure, yeah, yeah. So yeah, this is great. It really reminded me of a time when Tommy Lee Jones was in all movies. I love that this cranky southern guy was like

an indicator of box office success. Yeah, it is wild. Just put this old crank in your movie and people will love it. It's crazy for that guy to be a lead. Totally. Because he doesn't play hot dude. He just plays cranky guy.

But don't you think that that is a, like a standard Western thing, is like steadfast, reliable man. But you usually wanna fuck him. Well, I wanna fuck him. Well, okay, fair enough. I think he's fuckable. But I mean, look at John Wayne,

ugliest motherfucker I ever saw. Why was he in so many Westerns? Because he seems just like a guy who will show up. Yeah, I think it's because it was like four guys back in those days. Yeah, I mean like. And that was as good a shape as a man could be in. Right, exactly.

Like Clint Eastwood, bunch of toothpicks holding together that bullshit. Yeah, but that face, come on. But it's like, yeah, these guys, they were just guys who you know would show up if you called them. And that's kinda, I think that that was the standard. But Tommy Lee Jones, I think, is pretty handsome.

Yeah, pretty, yeah, pretty, and yeah, just like. The voice. He always good and stuff, and yeah, cool that there was a time in our lives where like that was the world's biggest movie star. So cool. Which is this old gold crank staring down death. Who hates Jim Carrey.

Who hates Jim Carrey. We were kinda talking about that. He told them, I cannot sanction your buffoonery. That is wild. It's been like great. I love it. That sounds like you kicked open some saloon doors and said that to Jim Carrey.

It's so funny that they had to be in that Batman movie together. and said that to Jim Carrey. It's so funny that they had to be in that Batman movie together. Oh, yeah. So yeah, so the movie, the kind of, we meet our other main character.

Someone, a small town sheriff, is arresting Javier Bardem. And he's got the air tank and the gun. We'll learn what that's for later. Wait. It's for? Can I ask a question about this air tank thing? Yes. Because I know it's something they use on cattle. And I guess supposedly there's no bullet or remnants

of what happened. Yeah, it is something that they use to kill cows. It's like a pressurized pump that shoots a steel rod into the cow. And Javier Bardem is toting this around. He's a killer for hire. He's toting this around, killing people. But it takes it back again.

So it shoots you in the head and then sucks back. Right, yeah, it goes back in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So there's no, you know... Bullet. You can't find a bullet. Exactly. That's so fascinating to me. Seems like a good way to get away with murder.

Well, I mean, not now, because that... Because that movie. Cormac McCarthy wrote a book about it. Like an asshole. I think that the reason why he wrote this book was cause he heard about that and went, ooh, great murder weapon. Yeah.

Let's, I think that, let's give a fucker a bowl cut and kill some fuckers. Let's make this about how death comes for us all. Yes, exactly. So yeah, he gets arrested by a small town sheriff who kind of takes him to the little jail. We see, as the guy's calling it in, we see just Javier Bardem in handcuffs

sneaking up in the background. This movie has so much fucking great shit happening in the background. Oh, God. It's such a, yeah, it's such a tense movie. And he like strangles the guy with the handcuffs and he's got just this totally insane blissed out look on his face.

That's me right before my door dash order gets here. And so he strangles this guy, they like fight on the floor and afterwards you see all the scuffs from their shoes on the floor. That's another fucking thing about this great movie is that like the little details, those little things. Anyway, this is gonna be one of those episodes where I just talk about things I like about a good movie.

Anyway, is this funny? This is not wire listening. You have a weird parasocial thing for us. Whatever, it's not a traditional. Trust me, there's weird things that make us horny in it. Buy our soap. Buy our soap. Buy the soap.

We made the hole with the pressurized cattle thing. Which, is it too early to say that Javier Bardem's wig is the worst hat? Oh yeah. Oh, here it is. The worst hat. There it is. Kristen Wiig would later repurpose that

for the target lady. Oh, how about that? Yeah. So true. Her last name's Wiig, that's funny. Yeah. Anyway, so we go to, oh and he, so after Javier Bardem gets out,

he like finds this random motorist guy to help him. That's something that happens. Like, these nice southern guys come to help him and he fucking kills him. It's the whole theme of the movie. And it's like one of those themes that sticks with you because you're just like, yeah, did Javier Bardem ruin kindness? Yeah. Because everyone's doing him favors.

You can't hitchhike anymore. You can't hitchhike. You can't, you know. And the weird thing is, you know, we've got another character, Josh Brolin, who this psychopath will be chasing, hunting. And he'll be trying to ask people for help, and they'll be dicks to him.

I know. And you're like, what the fuck? Where were they? Except those nice mariachi guys took him to the hospital. That's true. Oh, that's so true. Oh, and the guy at the Western store. Anyway, well, this is what comes and happens. We'll get into it. We'll get's true. Oh, that's so true. Oh, and the guy at the Western store. Anyway, well, these are the things that happen.

We'll get into it. We'll get into it. We'll get into it. We'll get there. It is true. I guess the Coen brothers, one of my favorite things about their movies is just the charm of small town people who are willing to help.

Yeah, I know. But then also the darkness of what lies beneath the veneer of kindness. Yeah, and they cast such wonderful people, you know? Totally. All the one scene characters, the fucking lady that works at the motel, everybody's awesome, great faces.

I love that bitch. Well yeah, all the old ladies in these movies, I could, people I'd play, every single woman, not the hot one though, not Josh Brolin's wife. I wouldn't play that lady. No way in hell. Carla Jean. Aw, she's great.

But no, like, you know, Tommy Lee Jones' wife, she's amazing. She's been in a lot of stuff. Beautiful, icy blue eyes, but like, yeah, the old lady with the beehive hairdo at the hotel, hell yeah, I'd play that bitch anytime. She has a bunch of eight tracks stacked behind her. Yeah, the old lady with the beehive hairdo at the hotel. Hell yeah, I'd play that bitch anytime. She has a bunch of eight tracks stacked behind her. Yeah, love her.

So, Javier Bardem, he's a killer, he's out there. We go to Josh Brolin, he's like out hunting in the woods. He's just kind of a random southern guy. And he kind of, he comes upon this like massacre. There's this drug dealer massacre, and he finds just a big old sack of money, and he fucking takes it. Here we go, bad idea.

But he also finds this guy, who I guess has been shot but still alive. Right, asking for water. In a pickup truck, and this guy is his demise, ultimately. Yeah, sure. And he's asking for water. Or is the lady at the pool?

Anyway. Oh, yeah. So. Cause he goes back at the pool? Anyway. Oh, yeah. So. Because he goes back, because he feels bad. We'll get there. We'll get there. So he goes home to his wife, Carla Jean. And she's like, what happened?

And he just won't tell her. Probably a fun guy to be married to. I mean, here's the other thing. We were talking about Paramount Plus and like the dick swing in Westerns. Yeah. I'm a big fan of Yellowstone and The Landman. They just do not communicate with women in those things.

And this movie was no different. Everybody needs some therapy. God, they just, you could probably explain it, but he's like, eh, fuck that. Like. So yeah, so he goes back out at night to give this guy water. And that's when they kind of like, you know, that's when kind of the bad guys get onto him,

they send a dog after him. So they send this like mean dog after him. And again, you just see this fucking dog in the background this whole time chasing him. He like jumps in the water, and the dog swims after him. And then just at the last minute, the dog jumps for him, and he, like, loads a gun exactly at the right minute,

shoots the dog. And it's, like, I didn't know pit bulls could swim. Yeah, and, like, swim to kill... Like, I would... Yeah. I love that scene. What if it caught him in the water? He would have... Anyway. I love that scene because the thing about even a pit bull,

as scary as it might be chasing you on land, when they're in water, they're still dog paddling. They're still cute. And they still have this big smile on their face. I know. And the dog actor was probably having fun. Yeah, the dog actor was having a great time. But yeah, that shot of like right when he was about to get

him, very scary. This movie tension and like the background like you said Yeah, it's all kind of stuff happening in the you know in the back of the frame And yeah, and all the like something I noticed on this watch is like most of the most tense shit just happens in broad daylight It's just at noon like this movie doesn't use like shadows or the darkness that much It's just like right someone fucking comes to your house at 2 p.m. To kill you Yeah, well the other thing is, like thinking about the background,

this guy is always having to check over his shoulder. Yeah, totally. He's being pursued constantly at a slow pace that you are always thinking about what's behind you. Yeah, so we go back to Harvey O'Bardem and he goes into the gas station and it's when we get the kind of the big scene of this movie that got like parodied,

this is where he says friendo. He's just intimidating this wonderful little old man who works at the gas station. I know! Making him like do a coin toss for his life. And asking him what time he goes to bed. Yeah. That was weird.

I know, so Have Yourself a Fucking Psycho, we don't explain anything about his backstory. Yep. And like this movie like drips out little nuggets of backstory for people. And I know that can be frustrating in other movies. I fucking love this. Me too.

I love it. I love the amount of information we get, which is basically none. Yeah. There's a lot of, I guess there was some outrage about this movie and things seeming vague or not feeling like there was a real climax to it. God, I disagree. Yeah, I know. I think it's really, really great. things seeming vague or not feeling like there was a real climax to it.

Sure. God, I disagree. Yeah, I know. I think it's really, really great and it gets so already in vague at the end. But yeah, and I get how if you're just a fucking cranky dad and you're like, finally they made another Western. And then it's as kind of weird and vague as this is. But also it's a great movie. Yeah. So, Javier Bardem, he's kind of like,

he's kind of like tipped off to Josh Brolin. He gets like the VET number on his car and there's a tracker in the money. So he breaks into Josh Brolin's trailer and he sent Carla Jean to live somewhere else and he's on the run. I like this little detail. Javier Bardem just like drinks all their milk,

like as if this guy wasn't a fucking psycho already. He's just sitting on the couch drinking milk. Yeah, and he doesn't even put it back in the fridge. Doesn't even put it back. That is a psychopath. I do wanna say one thing. All I wanted to do was when he was talking to the old man on the gas station going,

what's the most you've lost in a coin toss? I was like, if you did this in Nashville, someone would talk your ear off for probably an hour. They'd be like, well, I'm so glad you asked. When I was in the sixth grade, there was a coin toss where I... And half your body just gets annoyed and leaves. Exactly. He just fades away or shoots him. But I was... Please be quiet. He's just like,'t handle it. I was saying- Yeah.

Please be quiet. He's just like, god damn it, why did I even, it's like, why did you ask that question to a southern person? They're gonna spin a yarn, like. So yeah, so Josh Brolin is doing this little scheme where he's renting various rooms at this like little tiny motel

and he's hiding the money in the ducks and like kind of moving it around with a, you know, with a kind of a hook made of coat hangers. When you say ducks, it sounds like a quack quack duck, but you mean the like, the air. I mean a ducked. A ducked air ducked. Thank you. That's funny.

How many duck tails? A ducked. A ducked. Ducked tails. I've heard of duck tails? Well, this is a ducked tail. Hiding money with a tracker. Ducked tails.

Arrrr. You gotta put the bag where the air comes from, it's duck's tails. Duck's tails. Silencer on a big shotgun, duck's tails. I've never dealt with a duck. I've never been in one. There's so many ducks in movies. There's ducks in sewers. All these movies make you think you many ducks in movies, yeah. Well, yeah, there's like- Ducks in sewers.

All these movies make you think you're gonna, like, you know, the quicksand thing. Everybody's like, oh, I thought I'd deal with a lot more quicksand. I thought I'd deal with a lot more ducks. Me too. Never been in a duck. Never been in a duck. Where you gotta go escape or get through something. Yeah.

Never, I don't, we can't fit through the one in the studio. No way in hell. Oh, that's way too small. I couldn't fit one titty in there. Most of the ducks that I've seen are too small for me to crawl through. Yeah. And yet in video games, it's where I hide.

Sure. You know? So Javier Bardem, he's at this motel. He's blasting dudes with a big silenced shotgun that makes a really great noise. The air gun makes a great noise. The silenced shotgun makes a great noise. Yeah, all the sounds in this are great.

Well, the other thing is they do like to play with, is he going into the right room? Right. Like the hotel stuff, which they, there's a call back to it towards the end. But he kills a bunch of people like Javier Lourdin does because he keeps going in the wrong rooms to get our guy. But yeah, also can we do a sting for Ducktales in the future because there are so many movies.

That's true. With those like Jurassic Parks got one. There's all kinds. There's always a duck. So Ducktales, a woo woo. Yeah, there we go. So Matt, back into the sting mines. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Whip, whip. We need more. Sting harder. We probably, how many do you think we've got right now? Dude, like this is why it takes like a few seconds for me to find the sting. Oh yeah, it's okay. It's because I got so many guys. I'm backed up.

Okay. Sting mines are crazy. Constipated with sting. So we kind of like get a little bit of the kind of back story as to what's going on with like the higher ups behind this drug deal gone wrong. It's all kind of back story as to what's going on with like the higher ups behind this drug deal gone wrong. It's all kind of being orchestrated by Steven Root. Hey, this movie, so many great,

hey, he's in this jump scares. The Root is on fire. The Root is on fire. The guy's fucking great and everything. He's wearing a fucking blue suit. He's got an awesome mustache. This movie is a period piece. It takes place in the 80s.

It doesn't like. Is that when it takes place? I was having a hard time because they were talking about the 60s and stuff like that. And I was like, what the hell is this 70s? I know. So, you know, like Josh Brolin's character was in Vietnam.

And that's kind of like, I like that as a little detail. It's maybe why he's so crafty with all this stuff because he's been in high stress situations before. Great little detail. Steven Root hires Woody Harrelson to go after Harvey R. Bardem. Always happy to see him. Yeah, looking good in this cool suit.

Wait, how many Coen Brothers movies has he been in? I don't know if there's- I don't think he's been in any of them. I think this is the only one I know of. Yeah, he belongs in them. I know, he's a great, yeah. He seems like, if you told me he was in every one, I'd be like, oh yeah, sure, that makes sense.

Yeah, totally, he belongs in any movie ever. Yeah, he just like he seems like if you told me he was in every one I'd be like, oh, yeah Yeah, totally. He belongs in any movie ever. Yeah, like he's great. Yeah great in this Also, his father was a hit man. So he's kind of playing is Woody Harrelson's father Famously legendary. Yeah Oh, did you guys hear that? They're bringing back the another true detective season with him and Matthew McConaughey our favorite our favorite. Oh, okay. Our favorite YouTuber, Matthew McConaughey. Sure, everyone's favorite. I love it. I sent it for his newsletter recently.

What the hell is that like? Maybe in some future episodes, I will read off of Matthew McConaughey's email newsletter. He's writing things down? I guess, probably just more of his like, wife. Fake inspirational shit. Writing it down. Yeah, and his wife's right.

No, I think he probably dictates his newsletter himself. All right. And that's probably why it'll make no sense. I can't wait. So, Javier Bardem goes to another little hotel to hide out. There's a cat drinking some milk. I am pleased to report the cat makes it throughout the movie, even though several dogs die. I love this movie, the cat's fine!

There's another cat in the movie too, later on. Oh yeah, that's right, there's a lot of other cats. Good Cat Movie. There's a really kind of like tense standoff, this is like the closest the two have been to each other for the whole movie. Like Josh Brolin's just sitting in his room upright holding a gun and you see Javier Bardem's on the other side of the door, they just like sit there for a while. Very tense. There's a

little bit of shootout. You run through the hotel. You see that the cat's okay. It's kind of implied that the hotel clerk got killed. Yeah. But the cat's just out there drinking some milk. I love that hotel too. The hotel's great. Like that was, I loved that chase scene. That was a really fun action scene is what I would call it for sure. And yeah, it's a very like, yeah, it's a very like, yeah, it's very like minimal action, but it all like works so well. And it's, yeah, it's just so tense from beginning to end.

Yes. So, but Josh Bullen escapes, he tries to like cross the border to Mexico. There's a bunch of like frat guys. He buys like a coat off them. And then he just like collapses barely in Mexico because he's like lost a lot of blood. And these nice mariachi guys take him to a hospital.

But what's great about that scene is that in that scene he's showing up and he is clearly fucked up. Yeah. And he talks to these frat guys and they don't give him a coat. He has to buy it off them. And then as soon as he shows his money clip, they're like, oh, let's ask for more money. and they don't give him a coat, he has to buy it off them. And then as soon as he shows his money clip,

they're like, oh, let's ask for more money. They were being incredibly rude to a very hurt man. There is a parallel to this towards the end of the movie. Yes, there is. But yeah, they were dicks. They were. They were dicks. So he wakes up in this Mexican hospital.

Woody Harrelson is there. He explains a little bit of Javier Bardem, not his backstory, but just like, oh, he's a psychopath. He doesn't believe in anything. And then he tells him like, oh, I'm staying at this hotel if you want some help. And then Javier Bardem of course shows up there, kills Woody Harrelson and goes to the office and kills Steven Root.

Can I, I wanna ask a question. Yes. What does Steven Root's character have to do with any of this? I think he's just kind of like the money man who is moving all these drugs. And they don't really, he's just like, there's just, in a fucking office,

there's a guy with a mustache and a blue suit who is orchestrating this all. Yeah, but it's also like, I mean. Seems so corporate. Well, it's very corporate, but eventually, Javier Bardem goes and shoots him. So who the fuck is he working for? I'm like so confused about it.

It's a great question that they don't answer. And I love it. Yeah, I think he's just like, I just follow the trail of what makes sense to my psychotic brain in the moment. Right. And it's also like, then how did he get the job? Who hired him?

Exactly. It's like, you want to know get the job? Who hired him? Exactly. It's like, you want to know these things, but they never let you know. That's why you got to watch the Disney Plus series, No Country for Old Men Origins. And it fills in all the gaps. I love to know the gaps. Well, the fun thing about watching this movie

is the latest season of Fargo. There is a character that has a similar haircut and a little bit of a similar vibe to Javier Bardem's character and the ending feels like it's gonna be very similar to this but then it goes in a different direction. But so it's been fun to like look at the two because you could see that it's referencing itself in that.

But yeah, I'm like, who hired this guy? There's one person in the movie that I will get to towards the end that I'm like, is this the guy? But he hired him, but anyway. So yeah, so there's actually just a ton of people now looking for Josh Brolin. Like the drug cartel is also looking for him.

Yes. Yeah, actually we're kind of like almost to the end of this movie. So let's do this, we'll take a little break, and then we'll come back. ["Free With Us"] Hey, it's us, the hosts of Free With Ads. Hi. It's us.

during the Children of the Corn episode. Did I? Maybe. Well, I'm going to do it live. He's going to do it live. Just for you, Abby. Do it. Jerry.

Shh, shh. Abby Jones. Boom. Beautiful. Try Avi, though. You don't know if it's Avi. All right, I'll do both. Do some options.

We don't have a pronunciation here. Yeah, give him options. All right. Shh, shh. Fuck. All right, Ahem. Ahem. Shh, shh. Fuck. All right, hold on. What is it, Avi now? OK.

Yeah, yeah. Avi Jones. OK. Wait, now do Troutward Bound. Ugh. You got to pay more for that. All right, fine, one. Just for this one.

Troutward Bound. All right. Look at that. Personalized stings. You get your message shared with the audience. He's so winded. I'm working so hard in the sting mines. Maximumfun.org slash Jumbotron.

Share your message with the world. OK, back to the episode. We're back. It's Free With Ads. We are talking about no country for old men. So, yeah, Josh Brolin's on the run. He tells his wife, Carla Jean, to take her mom and go, I don't know where they're going. Who knows?

On a plane. And she has to move her mom, who's complaining the whole way. She's like, I've got the cancer. That actress is in so much stuff. I'm pretty sure she's been in a few Coen Brothers movies. That is who I'd play for sure. Oh. This lady.

Do the sting. I love her. Oh, there it is. Who we'd play. Yeah, I'm her for sure. So yeah, this is great. And so Josh Brolin goes to this hotel to make a stand. And there is this random woman sitting by the pool.

We don't get a close look at her. We know she's kind of a babe. She's flirting with them. She's like, come have a beer. And he's like, I'm married. He's like, well, we'll have him out here and you can stay married. It's great fucking dialogue And you can't you don't know if he agrees to do it You just kind of see him consider it, right?

And then the next thing we see is these fucking shot drug cartel guys peeling away from the hotel You see a crime scene with Tommy Lee Jones, and you get to see Carla Jean's face, assuming Tommy Lee Jones just told her that he died. And you don't see any of it, they go to the morgue, and you kinda sorta see his body, but not really. It is like, it is like crushingly unsatisfying. You don't get to see a big shootout,

it's just some fucking shit happened, he thought it would be okay to have a beer with this woman, and just got killed by some random dudes. It like, yeah. It's incredible. It's like no other movie would do it like that. I think a studio, like just, I'm imagining giving studio notes to this,

and how annoying they would be. Like, first of all, I felt a little bored with the no music thing. You think there could be like a da-dum, da-dum, da-dum. Or like country music. Yeah, country music's fun. All my exes live in Texas. Or, you know, like country music.

Do what you did, do what you did with Oh Brother. We sell a soundtrack. I got friends in duh places. Well, also, I think that the whole thing with the movie is that this violence becomes, like, people are insignificant when it comes to this violence where it's like this, like people just are disposed of and it's unsatisfying. Yeah. But when we kill a dog, we got to make sure we fucking blow its brains out in front of

everybody. But yeah, no, it's true. Also, I did look a little bit into the differences between the book and the movie through some videos. And I guess the girl at the pool in the book, they have multiple dinners together and have a lot of conversations. Interesting, okay. But they kinda chop that down. Yeah, which is nice because it's like,

you kind of get all of that just through the ambiguity of the cut. Because he says the line, what you looking for? He's like, what's coming? And then she's like, oh, no one ever sees that. And I'm just like, oh fuck, what's coming? What's coming?

And then cut to. No one ever sees that, it's in the background. Maybe she was working with the cartel, but maybe she was just. We don't know. Yeah, we don't know. But wasn't she dead in the pool? Oh, she might have been.

I didn't see that. I didn't see that. I think she was the body that was dead in the pool. I gotta watch this nine more times. Oh, I've never. I'm not sure. But, okay, so there's this thing. So we're always like, you know,

who hired this Javier Bardem character? Who hired him? There's a scene like, you know, who hired this Javier Bardem character, who hired him? There's a scene where, you know, Josh Brolin's wife and her cancerous mother are like having to go somewhere. Yes. And there's a man who comes up to her mother and is like helping her with the bags and going, where are you going?

Where are you staying? And the mom is just blah, blah, blah, blah. We don't know what happens to the mother. I feel like she's dead for sure, and also she probably welcomed it. She was like the sweet release. Sweet release of death. No more Lou Ellen, no more me.

Yeah, what the fuck with that name? Yeah, yeah, I keep forgetting. Josh Brola's name is, this is Lou Ellen. Lou Ellen. Yes, his name is. It's like a little house on the prairie. I know. What the fuck? I love that that's his name is. It's like a little house on the prairie. I know. Like what the fuck?

I love that that's his name. Laura Ingalls Wilder, but shortened. But anyway, so like I just kind of went, is this the guy who hired him? Is this our kingpin? I doubt it. My assumption was that he was part of the cartel group and not so much the whatever the, you know,

white collar, whatever the fuck Steven Roots guys are, feel like different guys than the Cartel guys. I have no idea who's on what team. It feels like this deal was very unorganized. 100%. I don't think these guys are good at selling drugs. What's the 80s? They don't have Slack yet.

That's right, they don't have Slack. If they had Slack, this whole thing would have gone fine. Slack for crack. Google meat. Yeah, they should't have Slack. If they had Slack, this whole thing would have gone fine. Slack for drugs. Slack for crack. Google meat. Yeah, they should have used Google meat. Yes. So yeah, so we- Zoom for shrooms.

So. Sorry. Yeah, what teleconferencing are you using to sell drugs? Let us know, freewithdadsatmaximumfund.org. So then we get a shot of that mom's funeral. Again, we don't know, yeah, was she killed by the guy at the airport? Oh, for sure.

Was it just, yeah. And Carl and Jean just goes home, again, fucking middle of the day, Javier Bardem is just like sitting there, and he's like, I promised your husband I would kill you. Yeah. Wild. And he sets up the coin toss thing for her,

and she refuses to call it and she refuses to call it. She refuses to call it. And we don't really see what happened. He's leaving the house. We see him kind of wipe his feet. Maybe that's the implication that he actually killed her and got blood on him. I think most people say that he definitely killed her. But I kind of don't think he did.

Well he's wiping his shoe. Well. Do you guys see in the mat? He wipes his shoe. He wipes the shoe. Well yeah he's wiping his shoe. Well. Do you guys see? In the mat, he wipes his shoe. He wipes the shoe. Well, yeah, maybe he just hates their house. That's true. That's true. It's just like gross.

I hate this. Ugh, they're carpet. Carpet. Barren, childless woman, gross. Disgusting carpet. And he drives away, and then on his way out, he just gets hit by a random car. And my favorite detail about that is, like, he's,

it's the light's green. He's going through, you know, an intersection. Yeah. And usually, you see a car out, like, the camera's shooting through the front, you know? And you usually see a car coming, but there is no car coming from that side. It hits him from the other side.

So the seeing things in the background, it is in the background so far that you can't see it coming. Yeah, yeah. You never see it coming. You never see it coming. It's so good. It's so good. And yeah, so yeah, as you kind of alluded to, Emily,

we get kind of a little twin scene to the frat guys on the bridge. It's these little Southern kids on bikes ride up to him and try and help him. And one of the kids gives him his shirt so he can make a sling and he kind of offers him money and the kid refuses it a couple of times. And then Harvey Wardem just kind of fucking walks off.

And you hear an ambulance in the background. And like, you know, probably he got caught, but also maybe not, this guy has fucking not gotten caught throughout this whole movie. No, he's never gonna get caught. I think that that's the point. Tommy Lee Jones will never catch him, and then he'll never get caught.

And he's a symbol for all of crime and all of people who take innocent lives and how it's just, you cannot stop it. Bad people get away with stuff. Just like how these kids were so nice to him. And so it's like, oh, bad people get away with things and the good people don't. Yeah, no, it was, ugh.

But yeah, he got up. He's probably still around. Yeah. He'll come for us right after this package. And we'll get to hear about him on the Disney Plus series. That's right. No Country Origins, eight episodes, all too long. I love a prequel series, baby.

Give me that lore. I want everything explained. I want to be spoon fed like a baby. The young version of him will be played by Austin Butler. Some rat boy will play him. No Country for Young Men. Ooh. Young, sexy men.. No country for young men. Oh. Young, sexy men.

I love young, sexy men. Still with ball cuts. They must have the ball cut. It is so crazy. They made it now to be old country for old them. Oh. Cut that out. Necks on the blaze.

Necks on the board. Necks on the blaze. No country for they them. What are we mad at? We don't know everything! Death is coming for us and we can tell. I hate you, Dad. And then the British version,

no country for Big Ben. LAUGHTER What's all this, old man? LAUGHTER Anyway... Oh, I love it. Anyway, so that stuff happens, and then we get the kind of last scene

of Tommy Lee Jones and his wife. He's retired. He's talking about going to ride the horses. He says the thing about a dream, though. Yeah, and he describes two dreams he had with his dad. One, he doesn't really remember. He gave him some money. And then he describes this dream of him and his dad

riding horses, and his dad riding horses, and the dad goes off to make a fire. And that's he just, he says, I knew I would see him again. Yeah, well, the whole thing was that I guess his dad died at a younger age than Tommy Lee Jones' character is right now. So I was older than him. So I'm looking at my dad, who's a younger man than me in the dream, which is so great.

My favorite thing is we didn't get to hear an old guy spin a yarn about how much he lost in a coin toss, but we got to listen to some old bag's dreams. I know. Like, what? Two dreams. Two dreams.

Yeah, back to back. Oh, he also goes to see his brother. His brother has a bunch of cats at school. Oh, yeah, the brother has a bunch of cats. Oh, I love him. He's in a wheelchair. he was clearly in some sort of like a shootout. And I love it too.

He was in law enforcement as well, right? I believe so. But I love that scene because at one point he's describing getting too old for this shit essentially. Yeah. And just the way his brother, the line, he goes, this country is hard on people, or this country is hard on folks.

And there was just something about that where I was just like, god, that is so Old West. I fucking love watching a competently made, non-kitchy Western. Yeah. You know, it's just, oh, it's so good. And yeah, the last kind of thing you hear is a little ticking of a clock

that gets louder over the credits. And then a little, which kind of bleeds into a little piece of orchestral music that's like, yeah, the only music. I didn't notice the ticking clock. That's cool. And that's no country for old men. And then we woke up.

Yeah. And it was the friends we made along the way. That's right. The end. And then Porky Pig comes out, that's all folks. And then Javier Bardem shoots him in the head with the steer driver. How much have you ever lost in a coin toss? Coin toss?

You're despicable Javier Bardem. I really I'm glad they didn't do a thing where a guy's out in front of the gas station going, you got any spare change? Hell yeah. That would have been hell. God, can you imagine if they had hired a punch-up guy? Oh, god.

Like a Marvel punch-up guy. Just someone in there, so that happened. So what? Every other fucking scene. As soon as Llewellyn dies, so that happened. Yeah, so I did a thing. I shot a guy with a fucking gun. Yeah, exactly.

I'm lucky nobody carries change anymore. Anyways, that's no country for old men. We're gonna rank it, but first we're gonna do the Hunk Watch. Woo! It's Hunk Watch. Emily, I think you can gonna do the Hunk Watch. Woo! It's Hunk Watch. Emily, I think you'll probably, you can probably carry us out of this. I'll just say real quick,

I liked seeing Garrett Dillahunt in this. Always loved this guy. He's like Tommy Lee Jones' dumb partner. He either plays the sweetest dad in the world or a horrible racist. Yes, he's in Deadwood. Yeah, he's great in Deadwood. He's also in Raising Hope,

which is one of my favorite, like, sitcoms of all time. That's one of his nice dad roles. Yes. Yes, he's great. Definitely, you know, I forgot about him. He's a funny, dumb guy in this. Matt, any thoughts on the hunks? I think it's obvious it's Javier Bardem.

I know it's the basic choice, but he's just so marvelous in this, and he also has a bowl cut ever inspired so much fear within someone. To have a haircut that stupid and still be handsome and scary, oof, he's my hunk. Yeah, I think he was especially hunky when he cleaned his own wounds

while he was naked in the bathroom. Yeah, he gets naked, just sits on the toilet and gives himself stitches. It was hot. It's incredible. There's like 10 awesome things we haven't talked about in this movie. This movie might have too many hunks.

Too many hunks? Like, too many hunks. Too many hunks. Too many hunks. It's true, though. New sting. New sting, baby. Too many hunks. For real. It's true though. New sting, new sting, baby. Too many hunks.

It's scant. It's very hard to choose. I think Tommy Lee Jones is going to be my ultimate hunk. But everybody's a hunk in this movie. It's pretty crazy. It's like hunk, hunk, hunk. Like Woody Harrelson, total hunk. Even Steven Root, give it to me.

Sure. Give it to me, business daddy. But yeah, I'm gonna go Tommy Lee Jones. I just, I love a sad, sad, masculine old man. Just accepting that death will be here when you least expect it. Steven Root is also a good choice. I love when he gets shot and he's just bleeding out on the ground.

And there's something about him, I'm like, I love this actor, because he can bleed out, and you're just like, what a brilliant guy. I know, he's a genius. He's really bleeding out. He's probably the only slightly humorous thing about this movie, because this is the least funny Coen Brothers movie I've ever seen.

It's bleak. But yeah, no, I think Stephen Root was kind of hilarious. Also, the accountant that he had, I love a guy with a job. Oh But yeah, no, I think Stephen Root was kind of hilarious. Also the accountant that he had, I love a guy with a job. Oh yeah, sure, the accountant's fun. He's like, are you gonna kill me? That depends, have you seen my face? Or no, he said, have you seen me?

Do you see me? God, every, the- Bitch, you trimmed your bangs yesterday. Like, of course I see you, they're perfectly level. The word economy in terms of like the lines which you trimmed your bangs yesterday. Of course I see you, they're perfectly level. The word economy in terms of the lines that Javier Bardem says, it's beautiful. Yeah, it is true that his haircut is so pristine

that he has to go to supercuts at least every week. Yeah, for sure. Perfect. How is it so straight? Great bangs. He's straightening it. How is it so straight? When I was a little girl, we had the bob with the bangs, the ding, the ding, diggy, diggy.

My sister and I, we had the bob with the bangs, and there's always one piece of hair that was hanging in the front of the bangs, and you just keep trimming them and trimming them, and then you'd have no hair left. So he had an amazing, amazing shitty haircut. Well yeah, we are going to rank No Country for Old Men on a scale of 1 to 10 super loud commercials when we come back. It's free with ads. We are going to rank no country for Old Man on a scale of one to ten super loud commercials.

Emily, we'll let you take it home since you were the, this is your first time seeing this movie. I'll go ahead and give this a 10. This is a pretty easy 10.

Yes, I'll say it. This movie is one point better than Teen Witch. I know. Wow. I know, it is one point better than Teen Witch. I am prepared to say that. Yeah, I love it. It's gorgeous and I love how Arty gets at the end

and I love the kind of, yeah, the tension's so great and the kind of vagueness and this kind of sense that the universe is random and nothing matters. Or does it? Mm-hmm. Yeah, it's one of those great movies and it's a great re-watch. I'm so glad I had the excuse to re-watch it for this podcast,, it's one of those great movies, and it's a great re-watch. I'm so glad I had the excuse to re-watch it for this podcast

because it's one of those where I feel like you see it around and you're like, oh yeah, that's a great movie, and then you watch it again and you're like, oh yeah, I recognized nine things in that re-watch that I didn't get the first time. So, yep, this is a great one. Matt? This is an easy 10 for me.

It is one of my favorite movies, although I do still believe that there will be Blood is a Better movie. I mean, I know they're different things. People only compared them because they came out in the same year and because they were both nominated for Best Picture. They're both very brown movies, too. Yeah, very brown.

So it was the Battle of the Browns that year at the Oscar. Battle of the Browns? Yeah, the Battle of the Browns that year at the Oscar. Battle of the Browns? Yeah, the Battle of the Bleeck movies. That's true. And, you know, it's just a fantastic movie. It's perfect in almost every way. And yeah, so 10, easy. Easy 10.

Emily, your first time, what'd you think? Okay, so we love the Coen brothers. We do. And there are other... Pickle Baskin, we've talked about Pickle Baskin? Oh, yeah. No one even mentioned, what a, the Coen brothers. We do. And there are other- Pickle basket, we haven't even talked about pickle basket. Oh yeah. No one even mentioned, what a, I mean, hilarious. That's very true.

I mean, there's so many Coen brothers movies that I would give a 10 to, like, oh brother, we're out there, I was a 10, no problem. This is not the same level of enjoyment that I feel with a lot of those movies. Oh, that funny. Not funny, but still compelling, heartbreaking. I'm going to think about this movie a lot.

And it's also fun to just watch old men having a hard time. Yeah. I love that. The movie's full of that. Yeah, men just having a bad time being men. I'm just kidding. But yeah, no, it's a 9.5 for me. I love it.

That's great. 9.5. I very much enjoyed it. I'm.5 for me. I love it, that's great. 9.5. I very much, I enjoyed it, I'm glad I watched it. I will watch, it's bleak, but I wanna watch it again. Yeah, it has that quality to it. Yes, absolutely. It doesn't feel like a slog, but it feels like a slog. It moves pretty fast, is the cool thing.

But yeah, loved it. No Country for Old Men, it's out there, we think you should watch it. Okay, let's do a little bit of plugin. Matt, you got anything? Yeah, I have a few things coming up. Well, first of all, if you're gonna be in Pasadena on July 5th, come to New World Disorder.
