I'm a big John Wayne fan but I'm in two minds as to whether I should watch the new " true grit ". For me Rooster Cogburn was John Wayne's definitive character.
I understand that this is not meant to be a remake & that it follows the original book rather than Wayne's film but I'm worried that it will be like a song that the original artist did with perfection & then another singer does a cover version that pales in significant's & yet at the same time it damages or corrupts the original and you never see it in the same light again.
I have read the reviews of the new one & it seems to be just about the best western in a decade so I'm kind of at a in pass
Has anyone seen it yet?
Can anyone recommend it?
