Value True Grit (2010) - movie review

Don't look for the filming of the famous frozen final of John Wayne, waving his Stetson, horse breeding until both legs finished version of 1969 "true grit." That said, Joel, and of Ethan Coen remake of the classic Western "true grit" is hardly recomposed all fabric, 1969. Has abundance two films in common — the first being the basic plot. Fiercely determined 14 years old Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfield) articulated and mature, plans to capture killer his father, Tom Cheney (Josh Brolin) and bring them to justice. Perhaps, however, Mattie may have some revenge grave on his tenacious spirit.

Despite their capacity is Mattie knows that you need help, and it urges US Marshal "Rooster" Cogburn (Jeff Bridges) to help him find Cheney. Along the way, Texas Ranger the beef (Matt Damon) joined as it is followed by "lucky" Ned Pepper (Barry Pepper), including gang, Cheney has joined.

There is a stone to the new version - literal and figurative. John Wayne immaculate beige suede jacket is hard contrast more realistic grimy failures of the bridge. This is repeated, not only in the wardrobe of the characters, but their make-up and more so, their teeth. You can almost feel the characters in the 2010 version.

It is, as you may have heard, much darker than its predecessor of 1969. It is also more graphic. In a remarkable scene where Mattie meet snakes, for example: in the 1969 version, they are threatening, apparently waiting for her open-air. When found the Steinfeld Mattie they are encased in a body decomposing.

There is much to admire in this inspired remake. Performance is excellent (and this is to compare work Bridges the performance citizen by Wayne). Much was predicted for the then 22-year-old Kim Darby (and yet it never another movie of note), but hope that isn't the case for Steinfeld - it would be quite tragic if it did not continue in the profession. An extra dose of reality is portrait to Damon's the beef, the role played by Glen Campbell. At that time, Campbell was already a superstar and Grammy winner in the country and pop categories and appeared in two movies, but history would be "true grit" is known (and best) movie to date. Campbell has good ' ole boy persona performance, giving the beef one dose of goofiness that seemed a little off for the movie. Damon the beef was not without humour, but there is a credible strength to him.

Genre, music is just one of the stars of the film. There where legendary Elmer Bernstein placed many upbeat, almost "car" music, accents Carter Burwell opts for an opulent score suitable for the time period and many course, for the film. Gospel songs layer depth of music, which includes songs by Iris Dement.

Ultimately, for all the similarities of the original, the Coen brothers have done a film felt deeply that resonates long after that the credits roll.
