Jim Culhane & Kelly McMurray

Even hopelessness is bigger in Texas!

Welcome to the Wild West of adaptions. The sheriff just quit, the author met the wrong side of a cattle stunner and the Coen brothers can be found at Trader Joe’s. Or so Jimmy and Kelly wish.

Kelly may be wearing a wishful tin hat surrounding the conspiracy theories surrounding Taylor Swifts sexuality… but she is decidedly not a Nihilist. Can she defend good writing and profound content despite her aversion to Southern Gothic? Or did Cormac mean to write the book title as No Country for Pagan Femmes?

The Cohn brothers won the Oscar for Best Picture and created a Western film studied by cinephiles and psychologists alike. Will Jimmy add another accolade to the films repertoire, something like “The Movie Was Better?” Or is that what Best Screen Adaption already implies?

Well, partner, kindly wiggle out of those handcuffs and abandon your moral code because your mental health might be staked on a coin toss. Book or movie, we’re all gonna end up like Cormac McCarthy.
