1* For a film as bleak as this one, Ed Tom Bell's closing monologue stands out:
2-->''"And in the dream, I knew that [my father] was going on ahead and fixin' to make a fire somewhere in all that dark and all that cold. And I knew that whenever I got there he'd be there. And then I woke up."''
3* The two boys helping Chigurh when he's wounded after a car accident, with one of them giving him the shirt off his back to use as a sling/to stop the bleeding and intending on doing this for free despite the money Chigurh offers. The boys have no idea that Chigurh is a murderer and an all-around monster who doesn't deserve the help, but that their first instinct upon seeing a stranger so badly hurt is to offer him help is rather touching.
