My name is 2007. Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair:

There Will Be Blood
No Country for Old Men
3:10 to Yuma
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

2007 was a banner year for the Western genre. The Shuffle Boys get into what each of these films was offering the culture in 2007, and spend the first half hour covering the Frontier’s effect on American national mythology and political culture for our overseas listeners. They then do their usual thing and do a deep analysis of the two best Western films of the decade, “There Will Be Blood” and “No Country for Old Men.”

Shout out to Greg Grandin’s book ‘The End of the Myth’ as a source for the history of the frontier.
