A review by foxynz
True Grit: A Novel by Charles Portis

4.0

A Western where the star is a 14 year old girl, determined as hell, tough as anything and absolutely steadfast and secure in herself. Mattie is a delight, and her deadpan obervations astute and refreshing. I wanted something more to push it up to 5 stars, but it's a good no nonsense, shoot em up, old-fashioned story, and I think any Western fan will enjoy it.
