The only thing that may be, I guess "difficult" is some of hte violence, but again that's only limited by the skill of the director. Scalping indians and dead babies in bushes aren't things that are physically or literally impossible to film.



Getting it on film is one thing.

Getting that film a rating that allows it to be shown in theaters is a completely different story.

It would be hard to get blood meridian to an R rating without damaging the story imo.

Damn - I didn't know it was that rough, even for a McCarthy book.
It came up as included in my Audible subscription, and I have until 9/12 to listen to it. It's next up for me, since I haven't read it yet.
