Don't Underestimate the Audience
A classic trope in books and film is the protagonist meeting the antagonist in a final battle between good and evil. In No Country for Old Men, author Cormac McCarthy and the subsequent film adaptation by the Coen brothers completely subverts the narrative we're familiar with. Lessons From the Screenplay goes into the details of the mechanics the Coen brothers used to keep the audience guessing — and how deliberately leaving out plot points keeps the audience engaged.
