Oh dear! Cormac McCarthy demonstrates how not to write a screen play. You cant just write a novel then put all those words into your characters mouths. Too, too many words. The Road and No Country for Old Men were beautiful, cinematic adaptations of McCarthy novels, where ideas were conveyed visually - because it is cinema. Then again, the most striking image in The Councillor, that that Javier Bardem had from his car, had to be conveyed verbally. imdb/title/tt2193215/?ref_=nv_sr_1
