We’ve only seen a few images for the new Coen Brothers film, but the phrase ‘new Coen Brothers film’ is enough to get most people interested, and now we’ve got our first look at True Grit with a trailer released a few moments ago.
The cast is another classic Coen ensemble, with Josh Brolin, Matt Damon and El Duderino himself Jeff Bridges all eyepatched up, and while this isn’t as quirky as the trailer for their last film, it’s a perfectly pitched tease for Coen fans. There are some truly beautiful shots in this one.
Synopsis please.
True Grit centres on Mattie Ross (Steinfeld), a young girl who acquires the assistance of aging, drunken U.S. Marshal Rooster J. Cogburn (Bridges) and young Texas Ranger, La Boeuf (Damon) to track down her father’s killer, Tom Chaney (Brolin), who has taken to a gang led by “Lucky” Ned Pepper (Pepper).
