    “Cinderella” and “Everafter” are the same in many ways but here are some stark differences. In fact they seem to be very different. In “Cinderella” Cinderella cried at her mother’s grave everyday like a baby. While on the other hand feisty and didn’t dwell on the past.

Like Mrs. Gunn said “you gotta be five levels below stupid if…” you have to have a…

The opening scene of NCFOM where Anton Chigurh strangles the cop to death instantly reminded me of when Gaear Grimsrud in Fargo shoots and kills the police officer in the head after only getting stopped for a minor traffic incident. “Money is the root of all evil” is a one of the common themes both “No Country for Old Men” and “Fargo” share. There is also a small time cop whose experience and intelligence pieces…
