Jeff Bridges & Matt Damon in the Coen Brothers':
TRUE GRIT
Now Playing @Lamar, Lake Creek & Village
Advance tickets available here
Pulp-auteurs Ethan and Joel Coen emerge with a new picture that is going to grind you up and spit you out. They’ve teamed up with their old friend Jeff Bridges (who they originally worked with on the classic THE BIG LEBOWSKI) and created a Western masterpiece. Bridges plays Rooster Cogburn, a one-eyed Federal Marshall with perfect aim and no restraint. His performance is an awe-inspiring achievement in deadpan comedy.
When Cogburn is hired by a 14 year-old girl (Hailee Steinfeld, in a role that could make her a star) to track down the man who killed her father, the two embark on a revenge expedition through Indian territory. They are joined by Texas Ranger LaBoeuf (Matt Damon, who has never been so funny), a hanger-on with his own intentions for the hunted man.
This is the Coen’s true follow-up to NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MAN, another masterfully shot Western that infuses their distinct voices into an older genre. Here, the script is unbeatable and the strange phrasings and quirky way of talking will have you immersed in the story while tickled with glee. Roger Deakins’ cinematography is breathtaking. The film’s painstaking recreation of mid-nineteenth century West is fantastic.
