In the Top 3 of my list of best Westerns
Added 2/6/2010
I've heard about this movie for many, many years. Don't know why I never got around to seeing it until now. But I'm glad I finally did. Wayne is great, Darby is great (I imagine that, though Mattie is the one who uses the phrase "true grit" to refer to Rooster Cogburn, it actually applies to her), and Campbell, though of course a singer rather than an actor, isn't that bad in his role.
I watched the movie late one evening, and kept meaning to stop it at some opportune point and finish it the next day. But I had to keep watching all the way to the end. Great entertainment.

Extremely good acting on all roles given.
Added 2/6/2010
Kim Darby gave a superb performance to such an extent, that you were rooting for her all the way to get the man that killed her Father. John Wayne always delivers a great performance, and of course he did in this movie which won him an Academy Award. Glen Campbell also did an excellent job on his part. All and all it was a great movie, one that I will enjoy over and over, mainly because I'm a John Wayne Fan. I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes westerns, or anyone that likes John Wayne.

My true reason for buying True Grit
Added 2/3/2010
The fact that I've seen this movie more times than I can remember might lead one to wonder why I would purchase it. True Grit stands on it's own as being one of John Wayne's most memorable performances as well as being among the best westerns ever made as far as I'm concerned...but I'm a sucker for all the special features that might give new insight or commentary on The Duke's life on and off the big screen. I wasn't disappointed.

True Grit truly great
Added 1/30/2010
I have always loved this movie - I saw it as a young boy - I was a huge fan of Glen Campbell - but this movie is all about John Wayne and as usual he does not disapoint. Everyone should have a copy of this movie -a true classic.

Movie was a great find and price. The DVD quality was great on an old classic. I would tell anyon, into the Duke, to buy this one.
