Yes. The Coen bros. wrote and directed both films. "No Country" has a much more serious feel to it though. And it isn't really like Pulp Fiction or NBK at all.

I feel like i'm going to be the only one who says that i didn't really like it. There was so much abstract deeper meaning in it that i just didn't understand it from just watching the movie, i was looking for meaning and i just never found any. I had to research afterwards but even after that i still don't completely grasp the point.
Also the dialogue was very tedious at points.
But it was a well made movie, i felt like it was kind of like the movie Seven. Really well made but besides that meh.

what kind of crack are you smoking and can i get some?
but seriously, you put way too much energy into analyzing things sometimes. I am not really sure of what kind of "abstract deeper meaning" you are talking about. And the dialogue was brilliant. The only thing this movie has in common with seven is that it has a really twisted villain.

the dreams? tommy lee jones' dreams were supposed to symbolize life after death/judgement/making his father proud/etc.

Reading the script after seeing it helped me a lot. I missed a bunch of shit because of accents/not paying attention.
