TRUE GRIT - COEN VERSION


Saw an early screening of this movie thanks to the OC Film Society. To say this is a remake does not do this film any justice . The Coen's nailed this movie, sure I am a Coen fan, but they nailed it with this movie.

Mattie was perfectly cast.

Jeff Bridges Narrowly edges out John Wayne as Rooster, that's a huge complement from me, I love the Duke. Bridges Is great in this role, hope to see him in more of the same.

I liked this movie so much I am planning to head back out and see it hen it opens.

The scenes were set up brilliantly, lots of eye candy.

Dialogue sharp and witty. Made you feel like you were in that time.

I almost shed a tear at the end.

The original  movie John Wayne won his Oscar . I never understood the casting of Glen Campbell but hey it was still good. Matt Damon was and is a better choice.

See it - money well spent -

Cheers
