Roasted Almonds Machine

True Grit




The Coen brothers have
"True Grit" remade.
the film for which at that time was John Wayne
his first and only Oscar,
"True Grit" was (1969) may not be Wayne's best western,
but eventually they had to grant him even an Oscar.
Yes, and that's all well again over forty years ago ....





John Wayne was then 62, Jeff Bridges, the
60 is already behind.

The Rooster Cogburn in the novel is the first mid-forties, with
a Walrossschnauz,
is also fat and drunk
A civil war veteran

once rode with Quantrill guerrilla force.

Wayne's eye patch sat anno 69 left, the right of
Bridges,
but this is with
any political allusion be connected.

And otherwise seems
Bridges as Marshal Reuben J. "Rooster" Cogburn make

not a bad figure.
Well, after all, he is the son of Mike Nelson ...



The role of Mattie Ross, the Cogburn to
hunting the
compels her father's murderer, was playing
Kim Darby,

now she is played by Hailee Steinfeld.

Matt Damon plays the Ranger La Boeuf,
at the time was presented by Glenn Campbell
...




similar type ... at least at first glance, I'd say
.






Robert Duvall was a pretty nasty convincing
"Lucky" Ned Pepper from ...





... whether it will succeed Barrry Pepper, the role
as convincing fill
remains to be seen.
Moreover, I am curious what the Coen brothers
have gained from the case.

Supposedly they have kept closer to the
original artwork.

Well, either way, at least at last
again a Western ...




welcome side effect is in any case,
that Charles Portis book rests again in
German translation.
