The sheriff gives three recommendations, and Mattie chooses the "meanest" of the three, Rooster Cogburn.

Mattie insists on traveling with Cogburn simply he departs without her, having gone with LaBoeuf to apprehend Chaney and divide the advantage.

Afterward pursuing and catching upwardly to the lawmen, Mattie is spanked for her perceived insolence past LaBoeuf. This, combined with a further disagreement, prompts Cogburn to end his arrangement with LaBoeuf; the latter leaves to pursue Chaney on his own. At a rural dugout, Cogburn and Mattie find two outlaws, Quincy and Moon, who give up afterward Cogburn shoots and injures Moon. Initially, the outlaws deny whatever knowledge of Ned Pepper or Chaney, merely Cogburn, using Moon's worsening injury as leverage, convinces Moon to cooperate. Quincy, enraged, stabs Moon and is himself shot and killed by Cogburn. A dying Moon informs Cogburn that Pepper and his gang will go far at the dugout afterward that night for supplies.

Adaptation and production [edit]

The project was confirmed in March 2009.[6]

Ahead of shooting, Ethan Coen said that the film would be a more faithful accommodation of the novel than the 1969 version.

It'southward partly a question of signal-of-view. The volume is entirely in the voice of the 14-twelvemonth-onetime girl. That sort of tips the feeling of it over a certain mode. I think [the volume is] much funnier than the movie was so I think, unfortunately, they lost a lot of humor in both the situations and in her voice. It likewise ends differently than the movie did. You see the master character – the petty daughter – 25 years later on when she's an developed. Another way in which it's a little scrap different from the movie – and perhaps this is only because of the fourth dimension the movie was made – is that it's a lot tougher and more violent than the movie reflects. Which is part of what'due south interesting about information technology.[7]

Mattie Ross "is a pill", said Ethan Coen in a December 2010 interview, "but at that place is something deeply admirable virtually her in the book that we were fatigued to", including the Presbyterian-Protestant ethic so strongly imbued in a 14-year-old girl. Joel Coen said that the brothers did not desire to "mess effectually with what we thought was a very compelling story and character". The film'south producer, Scott Rudin, said that the Coens had taken a "formal, reverent approach" to the Western genre, with its emphasis on adventure and quest. "The patois of the characters, the love of language that permeates the whole picture show, makes it very much of a piece with their other films, but it is the to the lowest degree ironic in many regards".[eight]

Still, there are subtle ways in which the moving-picture show accommodation differs from the original novel. This is particularly evident in the negotiation scene between Mattie and her father's undertaker. In the film, Mattie bargains over her father'south catafalque and proceeds to spend the dark among the corpses to avert paying for the boardinghouse. This scene is, in fact, nonexistent in the novel, where Mattie is depicted every bit refusing to bargain over her father's trunk, and never entertains the thought of sleeping among the corpses.[9]

Open casting sessions were held in Texas in Nov 2009 for the role of Mattie Ross. The following calendar month, Paramount Pictures announced a casting search for a 12- to 16-year-old daughter, describing the character equally a "unproblematic, tough as nails immature adult female" whose "unusually steely nerves and straightforward style are frequently surprising".[10] Steinfeld, and so age 13, was selected for the function from a puddle of fifteen,000 applicants. "It was, as y'all tin can probably imagine, the source of a lot of anxiety", Ethan Coen told The New York Times. "We were aware if the kid doesn't piece of work, in that location's no movie".[8]

The film was shot in the Santa Atomic number 26, New Mexico, area on 22 March and wrapped on 27 April 2010, as well every bit in Bartlett, Granger and Austin, Texas.[11] [12] The first trailer was released in September; a second trailer premiered with The Social Network.

For the terminal segment of the movie, a one-armed trunk double was needed for Elizabeth Marvel (who played the developed Mattie). Afterward a nationwide call, the Coen brothers cast Ruth Morris – a 29-year-old social worker and student who was born without a left forearm.[thirteen] [fourteen]

Both the brothers and Paramount Vice Chairman Rob Moore attributed the film'due south success partly to its "soft" PG-13 rating, atypical for a Coen brothers film, which helped broaden audience appeal.

Disquisitional reception [edit]

True Grit received critical acclaim. Roger Ebert awarded iii.five stars out of 4, writing, "What strikes me is that I'grand describing the story and the film every bit if it were simply, if admirably, a skillful Western. That's a surprise to me, because this is a film by the Coen Brothers, and this is the first straight genre do in their career. Information technology'due south a loving one. Their craftsmanship is a wonder", and also remarking, "The cinematography past Roger Deakins reminds us of the glory that was, and can still be, the Western."[xviii]

The Los Angeles Times critic Kenneth Turan gave the pic 4 out of v stars, writing, "The Coens, not known for softening anything, have restored the original's bleak, elegiac conclusion and as writer-directors have come up with a version that shares events with the showtime motion-picture show but is much closer in tone to the volume ... Conspicuously recognizing a kindred spirit in Portis, sharing his love for eccentric characters and odd language, they worked difficult, and successfully, at serving the buoyant novel likewise as existence true to their own black comic brio."[nineteen]

In his review for the Minneapolis Star Tribune Colin Covert wrote: "the Coens dial down the eccentricity and deliver their first classically made, audition-pleasing genre picture. The results are masterful."[twenty] Richard Corliss of Fourth dimension named Hailee Steinfeld'due south performance ane of the Tiptop 10 Moving picture Performances of 2010, proverb "She delivers the orotund dialogue as if information technology were the easiest vernacular, stares down bad guys, wins hearts. That'due south a true gift".[21]

Rex Reed of the New York Observer criticized the film'due south pacing, referring to plot points as "mere distractions ... to divert attending from the fact that cipher is going on elsewhere". Reed considers Damon "hopelessly miscast" and finds Bridges' functioning mumbly, lumbering, and self-indulgent.[22] Amusement Weekly gave the movie a B+: "Truer than the John Wayne showpiece and less gritty than the book, this True Grit is only tasty enough to leave movie lovers hungry for a missing spice."[23]

The US Conference of Catholic Bishops review called the film "exceptionally fine" and said "[a]mid its archetypical characters, mythic atmosphere and amusingly idiosyncratic dialogue, writer-directors Joel and Ethan Coen's captivating drama uses its heroine'south sensitive perspective – likewise as a fair number of biblical and religious references – to reflect seriously on the fierce undertow of frontier life".[24]

Rotten Tomatoes reported that 95% of critics gave the movie a positive review based on 275 reviews, with an average score of 8.32/10 and with its consensus stating: "Girded by strong performances from Jeff Bridges, Matt Damon, and newcomer Hailee Steinfeld, and lifted by some of the Coens' most finely tuned, unaffected work, True Dust is a worthy companion to the Charles Portis book."[25] Metacritic gave the film an average score of eighty out of 100 based on 41 reviews from mainstream critics, indicating "more often than not favorable reviews".[26] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B+" on an A+ to F scale.[27] Total Film gave the film a five-star review (denoting 'outstanding'): "This isn't so much a remake as a masterly re-creation.
