Background

“No Country for Old Men" is a film whose title is misleading. For while it might seem to the casual browser to be a thoughtful study of the transition of the West from cowboy rough and tumble to oil-hungry industrialization, it is in fact a masterpiece of modern suspense.

Our work capitalizes on the raw excitement and visual nuance of the film.

The simple, uncluttered graphic treatment underscores the raw violence, the memorable characters and the chilling storyline which otherwise might be lost due to the ambiguous title. The taglines carry a promise that this is going to be one wild ride, and yet, their mordant humor reflects the Coen Brothers distinct situational laughs.

In a sea of graphically overdone one sheets and print ads, the quiet, understated title treatments carry a strong foreboding.

Designed to convey excitement, the work appeals to both the avid filmgoer who appreciates the Coen Brother's remarkable films, while at the same time it invites the fan of action films by making it crystal clear this is no movie for the faint-of-heart.
