Audio problem: When Anton Chigurh challenges the gas station proprietor to a coin toss, at a certain point he says "It's either heads or tails." If you listen carefully it's clear that the phrase said by him has been dubbed.

Audio problem: When, at the end of the movie, Chigurh leaves the accident site after he said to one of the boys: "You didn't see me, I was already gone", the boy answers saying: "Yessir", but his lips don't move.

Suggested correction: The boy's mouth is open. You can say "Yessir" with your mouth open without moving your lips. Try it.

Other mistake: It would have taken two hundred $10,000 wrapped stacks of $100 bills to equal $2 million. There is no possible way that suitcase could hold two hundred of them.

Factual error: The satchel isn't large enough to hold $2 million. Maybe $1 million. There were six stacks showing on top, so $60,000 across the top layer. Each stack is nearly an inch deep, meaning that the satchel would have to have been about 30 inches deep, in other words 2 and 1/2 feet deep.

Carla Jean Moss: Going where?
Llewelyn Moss: There's something I forgot to do, but I'll be back.
Carla Jean Moss: And what are you going to do?
Llewelyn Moss: I'm fixin' to do something dumber than hell, but I'm going anyways.

More quotes from No Country For Old Men

Trivia: After burning and exploding a car, Anton Chigurh enters a pharmacy called Mike Zoss Pharmacy, to steal syringes, antibiotics and other stuff. The Coen brothers hung out at the real "Mike Zoss Drugs" located in a small shopping center call Texa Tonka, in St. Louis Park, a first ring suburb west of Minneapolis, Minnesota, when they were growing up and named it after him in the film as an homage. Mike Zoss Productions is the name of their production company (also named after the same man). "Mr. Zoss never asked us to leave," the brothers told Vanity Fair in 2011. "Out of gratitude we named our production company after him." The drugstore, founded in 1950, was later run by Mike's son Barry.
