Review of True Grit (2010) by Robyn M — 09 Sep 2012
I don't know where the Coens found Steinfeld, 13, but her star-is-born performance is worth shouting about. Steinfeld excels at Mattie's Southern idioms, backed with Presbyterian steel. She's Huck Finn as a teen diva.
Just watch her outmaneuver a horse trader or slap around Matt Damon's La Boeuf (pronounced "la beef"), the vain Texas ranger who deems her too unattractive and too young to rouse his interest.
You'll go nuts over Damon. He puts everything into the role and rides it to glory.
