CANNES, France (AP) - At a hotel beside the sun-dappled Mediterranean, the Coen brothers are recalling a harsh world of dust, drugs and death.
The American siblings' latest film, "No Country for Old Men," is a tale of murder that has impressed audiences and critics at Cannes Film Festival. At its center is an aging sheriff (Tommy Lee Jones) trying to catch a killer and make sense of a world in which violence seems to have no end.
"It's about his character confronting a violent, horrible, bleak, unforgiving world, and trying to come to terms with that," said a cheerful Ethan Coen, who wrote, produced and directed the film with elder brother Joel.
