Get Real, People |
| Even TV Guide's entry on this movie calls it "talky". And, yes, there ARE some good lines between the Duke and Kate Hepburn but they cannot carry the plot. And when I saw that helmet-haired "screenwriter" Martha Hyer had Hepburn's brother killed AND put them in a boat together (both a la "The African Queen", a classic with Hepburn and Bogart), I was embarrassed for them both. Hepburn has been quoted as saying she really liked Wayne but didn't care for the movie. Ditto, I'm sure. This is NOT a "screwball" movie. And to correct both posters regarding Robert Duvall in the original Rooster Cogburn movie, "True Grit", that was not his first movie role. He was in a silent role in "To Kill a Mockingbird" in 1962 and in Steve McQueen's "Bullitt" as a cabdriver in or about 1968. |

Rooster Cogburn |
This movie is a timeless classic. I never tire of watching it.
The wit and humor with adventure keeps your interest. I think John Wayne's preformance in this movie and
True Grit are his best by far. I would recommend these movies for any age. |

Comparisons to True Grit |
| RC has more humor than TG (plus).TG had better production values than RC (plus).TG had more memorable villains than RC (plus).The murdered father angle worked a little better for Kim Darby in TG than Kate Hepburn in RC (Hepburn and Lormer, as her dad, look around the same age) (plus) BTW to the poster who claimed TG was Bob Duvall's first movie---wrong. He was previously in To Kill A Mockingbird in 1962. |
