The Coen brothers did a terrific job with the material. It's not as powerful as Fargo or No Country for Old Men, but it's still great nonetheless. I really hope Roger Deakins will finally win Best Cinematography, he deserved it many other times in the past. Great review by the way!Austin Sacrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8618499524438478683.post-3995441724797337512011-02-01T20:31:17.628-06:002011-02-01T20:31:17.628-06:00Deb, I have the original "True Grit" on ...Deb, I have the original "True Grit" on DVD, as well as the book by Charles Portis, which is an easy read! I am willing to loan the DVD out if you and Tiff will compare and review. Thanks for the tribute you gave to me. I studied the "John Wayne Syndrome" in my police academy days. It originated from the movie and means a lot to anyone in law enforcement. Matt Damon played a great Texas Ranger role, as did Glen Campbell in the original. Now you know why I love True Grit! I had tried to convince Tiff to go and I'm glad you went and took the men with you.HChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09630068627583875167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8618499524438478683.post-88187574108581224162011-01-31T15:19:47.488-06:002011-01-31T15:19:47.488-06:00No, I never have seen the original!
