Antisocial Personality Disorder in Film

No Country for Old Men (2007) — High accuracy

dir. Joel Coen, Ethan Coen

Anton Chigurh is a quintessential representation of the callousness and lack of remorse central to Antisocial Personality Disorder. He operates with a complete disregard for human life and social norms, viewing his violent actions as inevitable outcomes of a deterministic system.

• Lack of remorse (killing a police deputy and a civilian without emotional arousal)
• Failure to conform to social norms (systematic execution of individuals who provide no direct threat)
• Reckless disregard for safety of self or others (engaging in high-stakes shootouts and self-surgery with indifference to pain)
