Not really...
I can relate to them because I have relatives similar and I can relate to the Sheriffs on a more personal note.

sheriffs?

Perhaps he's confused There Will Be Blood with No Country For Old Men. Because they're so similar...

Hmm... I also should have not Anglicized it and instead written Sharīf.
His enforcers and protectors as it were.
I couldn't think of a better word than henchmen at the time and didn't necessarily want the negative connotation because I am not now nor have I ever been a henchmen.
But a Sharīf to be sure.

Similar but entirely different.
Not those sheriffs though.
But maybe Sheriff Bell to a degree.
Fortunately or Unfortunately I am acutely aware of the differences between each film and have them both.
My youngest son memorized the "If you have a milkshake, and I have a milkshake" monologue the first time he watched the film and on more than the rare occasion goes off in to it with any hapless victim he corners. :grin:

His right and left hand men.
His crew.
The guys who got the getting done.
Not his son... but the rest that were with him and made things happen.

Sharīf (Arabic: شريف) is a traditional Arab tribal title given to those who serve as the protector of the tribe and all tribal assets, such as property, wells, and land.
