No Country for Old Men Scene 43 Summary

  • Anton Chigurh leaves Carla Jean's house and checks the bottoms of his shoes (possibly for blood). We notice that he's not carrying an obvious weapon on him like in other parts of the movie, and it's unclear whether he killed Carla Jean. Although we have to admit it's pretty likely.
  • While driving away from the house, Chigurh looks in his rearview mirror at some kids riding bikes in the street. The distraction prevents him from seeing another car at the next intersection. The car T bones him in a horrifying crash.
  • Chigurh gets out of his car with a lot of blood on his face and with a clearly broken arm. The two kids on bikes ride up to him and ask if he's all right. One of them notices a huge chunk of bone sticking out of his arm.
  • Chigurh asks one of the kids for his shirt and uses it to tie a sling for his arm. He then gives the kid a large bill (probably $100) and tells the kids that they never saw him. He walks away before the ambulance can arrive.
  • Like we said, stone cold.
