Movie: No Country For Old Men

Interpretation:
I feel like the whole message of the film was subjectivity itself. It's only bleak if you take it from the sheriff's point of view. Thus, ending on that monologue was key, in that the Sheriff only just started to realise he was getting old, and getting old was coloring his view of the world. When he was younger and his mind was sharper he would have solved the crime. Now he can only tell 'something' is going on but he can't solve it.

What his monologue told me is that he was merely preparing to step aside for the next generation to come through; a new generation of good guys and bad guys, that behaved completely differently to the goodies and baddies of his day. He's realized that the game is completely different. Bardem and Brolin's characters only serve to illustrate his point.

I concur with everyone else who stated what a brilliant film this is.
