True Grit does justice to the original

So tonight on this snow day I went and saw True Grit. Hoping that the movie did John Wayne honor, it did more than that. Jeff Bridges was an excellent Cogburn and portrayed him beautifully. Matt Damon played the Texas Ranger, Mr. LaBoeuf,  very well and  Hailee Steinfeld portrayal of Maddie Ross was better than Kim Darby in the original. This movie went far above my expectations and is a must see.
