    Watched “Child of God” this week on dvd. Based on a Cormac McCarthy story.

    It’s a little ordeal of a movie. Gawd. Think ‘No Country for Old Men’ meets ‘Deliverance.’

    “At one time in the world there were woods that no one owned”
    ― Cormac McCarthy, Child of God

    “Each leaf that brushed his face deepened his sadness and dread. Each leaf he passed he’d never pass again. They rode over his face like veils, already some yellow, their veins like slender bones where the sun shone through them. He had resolved himself to ride on for he could not turn back and the world that day was as lovely as any day that ever was and he was riding to his death.”
    ― Cormac McCarthy, Child of God

    “He did not know how hawks mated but he knew that all things fought.”
    ― Cormac McCarthy, Child of God
