The story follows Mattie Ross, a 14-year-old girl, who undertakes a quest to avenge her father’s death at the hands of a drifter named Tom Chaney. Ross persuades an alcoholic marshal named Rooster Cogburn to join her in tracking down Chaney.
Like most Coen films, the cast is top notch. Jeff Bridges stars as Rooster Cogburn. Josh Brolin plays opposite him as Tom Chaney. Matt Damon is also in the film in a supporting role. I am also intrigued to see what the Coens are working on. A great cast with a celebrated novel and previous film adaptation means good news to me.

It is wonderful they are making another True Grit movie. History shows the real lawman with the most "true grit" that worked for the Fort Smith federal court during the "Wild West" era was a former slave name Bass Reeves. Reeves worked for 32 years and became a legend in the Indian Territory. Hopefully one day someone will make a movie about Bass Reeves.
