• Five Live: Music
1. Barton Carroll His new album, released earlier this week, took its title from a German noir film, "Der Verlorene," which translates to "The Lost One," and darkness permeates the folk rock here. Carroll is subtle, with stories more about realism, however painful it might be, than rosy-colored optimism. 10 p.m. Friday, Mississippi Studios, 3939 N. Mississippi Ave.; $7 advance, TicketWeb.com, 503-288-3895

1. "No Country for Old Men" Adapting a novel by Cormac McCarthy that seems to have been conceived with them in mind, Ethan and Joel Coen deliver their harshest, chilliest and most austere film in many a moon. Javier Bardem is enormous as a diabolical killer on the trail of a man (Josh Brolin) who has discovered the money left behind at a drug deal gone wrong; Tommy Lee Jones is the Texas sheriff who can't believe how ugly it all gets. Exact, spare, bloody, dark and unrelenting, it's superb. (Multiple locations)
