Get Low is a movie about a 1930s Tennessee hermit (Robert Duvall) who decides to throw his own funeral party… while he is still alive. I have seen the trailers and read Roger Ebert’s review. The two trailers I have seen (below) and the story seem quite interesting, Duvall and Bill Murray are two very fine actors.
True Grit is a novel by Charles Portis, an american author. It is about Rooster Cogburn, a former U.S. Marshal, and Mattie Ross, a 14-year-old girl who hires Cogburn to track down her father’s killer. In 1969 Henry Hathaway adapted Portis’ novel for the screen and that film landed John Wayne an Oscar for his fine performance as Cogburn. The Coen Brothers have recently worked on a new version of True Grit and their movie is released this December in the US. The cast and the first trailer is quite promising, i might go and see it: Jeff Bridges plays Cogburn. Newcomer Hailee Steinfeld plays Mattie Ross. Matt Damon and Josh Brolin are also in the cast.
