And I understand why. The average film-goer will leave the theater saying "this fim don't make sense" based on that last scene.
We all know the film should have ended with Bardem walking away BUT the Coens decided to throw in some seemingly incoherent down homeliness. They make movies and know what works SO the final scene obviously really means something to them that the majority of folks don't get. This is emphasized by the lack of score when the credit begin to roll.
This must have been a tough decision as that last scene can definitely effect its word-of-mouth maketability.
