‘Old Men’ Get Nod As AP’s Movie of 2007

It’s never happened in all the time we’ve been doing this: Associated Press reviewers David Germain and Christy Lemire agree on the year’s best film. Here’s how the rest shake out. The top 10 films of 2007, according to AP Movie Writer David Germain: 1. “No Country for Old Men” — With weird hair and businesslike savagery, Javier Bardem could teach Hannibal Lecter a thing or three about pitiless bloodletting. Bardem as a killer, Tommy Lee Jones as a wayworn lawman and Josh Brolin as a good old boy who stumbles on a fortune in drug money are one of the great triumvirates of modern film. Aided by cinematographer Roger Deakins’ desolate landscapes, Joel and Ethan Coen bring Cormac McCarthy’s Texas crime saga to life with all the regional authenticity they applied to their Minnesota tale “Fargo.”
