If you know anything about the story of True Grit, then you know where this frame takes place in the movie.  I love the look on Jeff Bridges face, it says everything yet very little.

True Grit also stars Matt Damon, Hailee Steinfeld, Josh Brolin and Pepper Barry.  The movie is directed by Joel and Ethan Coen.

The movie is about a fourteen-year-old girl named Mattie Ross (Steinfeld). Her father has been shot in cold blood by the coward Tom Chaney (Brolin), and she is determined to bring him to justice. Enlisting the help of a trigger-happy, drunken U.S. Marshall, Rooster Cogburn (Bridges), she sets out with him – over his objections – to hunt down Chaney. Her father’s blood demands that she pursue the criminal into Indian Territory and find him before a Texas Ranger named LeBoeuf (Damon) catches him and brings him back to Texas for the murder of another man.

The movie opens this Wednesday, December 22, 2010.

    I'm probably the minority, but I was really disappointed by this film.
    Yes, Jeff Bridges rocks… but he's not enough to save this snore-fest
