Authority: 570
Underneath the grit, grime, grey skies, and melancholy of THE ROAD, there is a heart to it, an overpowering optimism that stems from the energy a father gives in the love for his son. It is a hard world the father and son in this film live in, and, many times, it seems the end has come. You believe those moments, ...9 hours ago -

Movie Thoughts: The Road Cormac McCarthy is a graphic, and in the minds of some, a disturbing writer. Want a perfect example? Just look at “No Country For Old Men.” Sure, the Coen brothers added their twists to telling of the story but the movie gives you a baseline understanding of McCarthy’s writing. When ...1 day ago -

The Road - The Loneliness of the Long Distance Walker
Reel Nerds —
Authority: 127
I read The Road just after it came out, before Oprah, before the Pulitzer, and I thought it was okay.

Despite the level of detail McCarthy brought to the devastation ...1 day ago -
