This week, I return with a mirthful TimMan to discuss one of our absolute favorites, the Coen Brothers’ 2010 masterpiece True Grit. Our conversation views the film from a theological perspective: all is grace (within the movie, anyway).
Those coming for a comparison to the John Wayne original will be left wanting. But those looking for reasons why the remake is a masterpiece – fully deserving of its 10 Academy Award nominations and its spot as the CMG’s favorite Western of all time – will not be disappointed.
