No Country For Old Men


    Chigurh: What's the most you've ever lost on a coin toss?
    Proprietor: Sir?
    Chigurh: The most. You ever lost. On a coin toss.
    Proprietor: I don't know. I couldn't say.
    [Chigurh tosses a quarter in the air, catches it, then places it on the counter with his hand over it]
    Chigurh: Call it.
    Proprietor: Call it?
    Chigurh: [sighs] Yes.
    Proprietor: Well - we need to know what we're callin' for here.
    Chigurh: You need to call it. I can't call it for you. It wouldn't be fair.
    Proprietor: I didn't put nothin' up.
    Chigurh: Yes you did. You've been putting it up your whole life. You just didn't know it. You know what date is on this coin?
    Proprietor: No.
    Chigurh: Nineteen fifty-eight. It's been traveling twenty-two years to get here. And now it's here. And it's either heads or tails, and you have to say. Call it.
    Proprietor: Well look... I need to know what I stand to win.
    Chigurh: Everything.
    Proprietor: ...How's that?
    Chigurh: You stand to win everything. Call it.
    Proprietor: All right. Heads then.
    [Chigurh removes his hand, revealing the proprietor made the correct call]
    Chigurh: [suddenly] Well done! [pause] Don't put it in your pocket, sir.... Don't put it in your pocket, it's your lucky quarter.
    Proprietor: Well where do you want me to put it?
    Chigurh: Anywhere, not in your pocket. Where it'll get mixed in with the others and become just a coin... Which it is.Source URL: https://logoswallpapers.blogspot.com/2010/05/no-country-for-old-men.html
