True Grit is a powerful story of vengeance and valour set in an unforgiving and unpredictable frontier where justice is simple and mercy is rare. Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld), is determined to avenge her father's blood by capturing Tom Chaney (Josh Brolin), the man who shot and killed him for two pieces of gold. Just fourteen, she enlists the help of Rooster Cogburn (Academy Award® Winner Jeff Bridges), a one-eyed, trigger-happy U.S. Marshall with an affinity for drinking and hardened Texas Ranger LaBoeuf (Academy Award® Winner Matt Damon) to track the fleeing Chaney. Despite their differences, their ruthless determination leads them on a perilous adventure that can only have one outcome: retribution.

What a great film, and a deserved Oscar for JOHN WAYNE, forget the remake with jeff bridges, this is has good as it gets.This performance is unlike any other he made in his long career going way back to 1928.There are so many classic scenes from start to finish, along with great dialogue.The film draws to a dramatic finale with a shoot out. The superb photography and great music by Elmer Bernstein, makes this a great western released in 1969, and sits well alongside other classic westerns released in the same year Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid, and The Wild Bunch.
