On this western themed episode of Movie And A Beer, we take a look at a classic remake from 2010 True Grit. The original movie came out in 1969 staring John Wayne. This time around the Coen brothers' try to stay more true to the Charles Portis’s 1968 novel of the same name. Set in 1877, it follows 14-year-old Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld) who's goal is avenge her father's murder by an outlaw named Tom Chaney (Josh Brolin). She hires the hard-drinking, one-eyed U.S. Marshal Reuben "Rooster" Cogburn (Jeff Bridges) and is joined by LaBoeuf (Matt Damon), a Texas Ranger also tracking Chaney for a reward. The story is one of growth, acceptance, and revenge in the end. We enjoyed a couple of great beers from local(ish) breweries. First up was an Alt beer from Gold Dot Brewing (OR) followed up by a wonderful Dark Czech Lager from Block 15 Brewing. Both were amazing in their own ways, similarly to the characters and how what they bring to the table matters. Give the episode a listen to hear about that and a few discussions about firearms and the old west.
