NP - William Faulkner Goes Online, 50 Years Later

[rich]

I liked the book but the movie suffered from that all intrusive
background music (do directors not think we won't get when a scene is
sad or strange but feels the need to add music just in case) though it
pretty much mirrored the book pretty well

thought No Country was much better film-wise than The Road
