Review of True Grit (2010) by Peter Travers for Rolling Stone — 21 Dec 2010
What makes True Grit a new classic for the Coens is the way the brothers absorb the unfairly unsung Portis into their DNA, like they did with Cormac McCarthy in "No Country for Old Men." True Grit is packed with action and laughs, plus a touching coda with an older Mattie, but it's the dialogue that really sings.
Great filmmaking. Great acting. Great movie. Saddle up.
