Well, your wait, if you were waiting, is over.
The trailer for the Coen Brothers’ TRUE GRIT has been released. Thoughts? It’s a good lookin’ trailer. However, that song instantly drove me insane. The whole time I was like, “When will this fade out?” Maybe something instrumental would have been better? I might be alone in this thought.
Other than that, it’s really my only complaint. It also reminds me of how bad ass and manly John Wayne was. Then again, so is Jeff Bridges, who from the looks of this trailer slides comfortably into the role of Rooster Cogburn. The Coen Brothers look like they have another wonderful film on their hands…and it’s a remake!
What do you guys think? To check it out in HD, head over to Apple trailers.
Official synopsis:
“Fourteen-year-old Mattie Ross’s (Hailee Steinfeld) father has been shot in cold blood by the coward Tom Chaney (Josh Brolin), and she is determined to bring him to justice. Enlisting the help of a trigger-happy, drunken U.S. Marshal, Rooster Cogburn (Jeff Bridges), she sets out with him — over his objections — to hunt down Chaney. Her father’s blood demands that she pursue the criminal into Indian territory and find him before a Texas Ranger named LeBoeuf (Matt Damon) catches him and brings him back to Texas for the murder of another man.”
