New True Grit or Old True Grit?

old.

New True Grit. First of all, the new one IS NOT A REMAKE. Get that straight. The new one is a different version of the book. You see, the original one was very LOOSELY based on the book. The new one was HEAVILY based on the book, and I've read the book and the new one follows it almost exact. The Coens didn't even think about the 1969 version before they made the movie. They both read the book and then made the movies from what they read in the novel. Yeah both movies share some exact lines (obviously because those lines were in the book), but trust me, the new one is more true to the novel. Plus Kim Darby seemed to perky and nice in the 1969 one. Mattie Ross is supposed to be headstrong, annoying and bratty. I thought Hailee did wonderful. When you make a movie based on the book, you need to make it as close to it as possible, and the new one definitely does that.

The old True Grit.

I recommend watching True Grit. I included a link to the place that I watched it. Usually, these movie sites have ugly quality, but this copy is good.

It's a great movie! :)

Not even close: the old version. Hate when they to "re-makes" of a successful movie or TV show - they are NEVER as good as the original.
