Coens\u2019 adaptation is the second after the 1969 version starring John Wayne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>True Grit is yet another example of how the Coen brothers can apply their virtuosity to literally any genre. After neo-Western No Country for Old Men (2004), True Grit is the Coen brothers\u2019 hommage to Western in its most classical form and strikes by its simple perfection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While at first not so obviously marked by the Coen brother\u2019s style, True Grit still features all the distinctive savorous traits of their movies like razor-sharp dialogues, contemplative scenes, and mystical bits. Part of the magic formula is, of course, True Grit\u2019s outstanding cast, led by Jeff Bridges as Marshal Rooster Cogburn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In between Cogburn\u2019s unintelligible mumblings, grumpy and arrogant facade, and the burden of a painful past, shines through unwavering righteousness \u2013 that very rare True Grit. Instead of following the footsteps of John Wayne (who won his only Academy Award for this role), Jeff Bridges makes his own path and gives a unique substance to the one-eye Marshal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The beautiful natural sceneries of True Grit showcase New Mexico where most of the outdoor scenes were filmed. Texas was also used as a stand-in for Arkansas\u2019 Fort Smith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"maps\">Maps<\/h2>\n\n\n\r\n            \r\n            \r\n            \r\n            <a name='map27'><\/a>\r\n            \r\n            \r\n            \r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"wpgmza_map \"  id=\"wpgmza_map_27\" style=\"display:block;
