At the climax, Cogburn kills four men while doing the exact same thing.Ĭogburn doesn't put the rope around Mattie when camping because she is too "boney" and "doesn't have enough meat" on her bones for snakes to take a liking to her.
She doesn't believe it (or it could've been LaBoeuf, I can't be too sure).
Later on, LaBoeuf saves Cogburn by shooting Ned Pepper from 400 yards away.Ĭogburn tells Mattie how he once charged and killed seven men on horse back with the reigns in his teeth and wielding two pistols. Cogburn says that there was no chance he could've killed a man from that far. He could've killed him using his Snipes carbine, but didn't. LaBoeuf remarks about how he was close to killing Tom Chaney from 300 yards away. Each and every character has a beautiful arc and there's so many things that are mentioned in the beginning that come back to play. Their vernacular is incredibly unique and funny. The writing is what really stood out to me. Even Roger Ebert said- "The cinematography of Roger Deakins reminds us of the glory that was, and can still be, the Western."

The final shootout is in Deb’s Meadow below Chimney Peak, which offers the sprawling beauty of nature.What can I say? I re-watched this movie for the third time last night and suddenly picked up on so many things I missed on the first and second viewings.įirst of all, the direction and acting are superb and of course, Roger Deakins is just a marvel.

Chen Lee’s is on the same street, although the building with his name on it is gone. However, the building is now a Natural Foods store. The funeral parlor behind Wayne and Darby in the town is also visible on Clinton Street. The video moves to the Ouray County Courthouse, where you can see the stairway and the exit displayed in the film. It’s now an interior wall at the True Grit Cafe.
