(These Were) Pics From The Filming Of The Coen's TRUE GRIT!!
Merrick here...
Rooster Cockburn sent in some pics nabbed from the filming of Joel & Ethan Coen's TRUE GRIT adaptation in a small town outside of Austin. No pics of Flynn/Dude wearing a cowboy hat & an eye patch yet - we're waiting for that with baited breath. Although, I guess we got a sense of the hat part in CRAZY HEART...
I believe we're loking at Joel Coen in the fourth image (black shirt & cowboy hat - is that him?), and Hailee Steinfeld as Mattie Ross in the sixth image (she's the girl who drafts Rooster Cogburn to go out and find the asshole who killed her daddy).
IMAGES REMOVED!!!
The film, which is a re-adaptation of Charles Portis' novel (HERE
) more than a remake of the John Wayne film from 1969 - should be in theaters 'round Christmas.

It is a set pic ... more details please .. but hey .. slow day?
-
I hope they keep that in. I really hope this is a parody...
-
Seriously, it's got to stop. Remaking Death At A Funeral was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I love the Coen's, but I expect better from them. Please people, think of some new ideas or take some ideas that are in print and put them onto the big screen.
-
Nobody remakes a John Wayne film.
It's ludicrous, utterly abhorrent.
Don't give me all that shit about it being from the book. Are they so out of ideas that they even have to go here? -
at the "Little Fockers" shoot..De Niro,Keitel,Ben Stiller,Owen Wilson were across the street where i was standing..a security guy told me that it was prohibited...couldn't contain my excitement at seeing DeNiro and Keitel..received a jolt when my teenaged daughter commented: "Whats the big deal w/ those OLD people?"
-
The orange dildo next to the sign in pic #4 should be the star.
This is the best thing to happen in years, remaking a classic POS, what else will they do for a few bucks?
I demand a remake of Apocalypse Now Redux!
Make it so Hollyweird! -
raped a poodle. And it was male.
-
That or the crappy sheet metal smokestack. Yeah I am obsessed with the fourth picture. At least they can save a few bucks using 'unknowns'...
-
...but it sure smells good!
-
..Coen Brothers = Quality
-
C'mon, "No Country for Old Men" should put all yall stupid ranting assholes to rest. That movie is a contemporary western soon-to-be classic. I await this anxiously.
-
Was at least hoping for a one-eyed, beer bellied, sum bitch Jeff Bridges photo.
-
Anybody who's familiar with the book know how much the John Wayne movie missed out on. I can see the Coen's making the first truly great film of the new decade with this one.
-
Millars Crossing and O brother are both remakes / adaptations of previous material, though the lady killers is probably there most direct lift and also their least successful creatively speaking.
-
I would be raising hell about this remake. But, the Coens have earned my respect. I anxiously await their interpretation of this story.
-
Can't wait for this.
-
...or even a "reimagining", all I know is COEN BROTHERS + JEFF BRIDGES + WESTERN = MY BUTT IN THE THEATER ... well, only if it's in 3-D of course.
-
Will they provide a box for Damon to stand on so he can replicate the height of Glen Campbell? Or will he be wearing lifts in his boots?
-
they should make that the tagline on the movie poster
-
I recently started reading her, and her stories have Coens written all over them.
-
the John Wayne adaptation. Just like Denzel Washington's THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE wasn't a remake, neither is this.
-
You could make the argument that every Coen Bros movie is a remake. Like Tarantino they have a post-modern sensibility that copies and then transforms the source material.
-
Its an adaptation of the original novel, they are paying absolutely no attention to the John Wayne film and are simply adapting the source material.
-
The Coen Brothers have this under control, it will be awesome, and yes I'm a huge fan of the John Wayne adaptation as well. When something is based on a novel, it isn't considered a remake if it's made more than once into a movie. This is a win win, at the end of the day we will have TWO great versions of True Grit to enjoy. ;)
-
Should have tried to get the rights to Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian.
-
Don't you have some mule jizz to be guzzling or did your mom drink it all?
-
Rabble Rabble!!!!! Even more than before I rabble!!! wtf was up with remake?- its like oohhh fuck the gods, i dont need help from them..im Sam Worthlessnessington!!! while in the 81 version he wouldnt have got past the first act without all the help he got!!! Rabble rabble
-
I'm up for a remake of this classic novel.
-
So cool to see a real western being made.
-
Not that good, folks. And I'm old. It was a hit, definitely, and Wayne is great fun (hell, so is Kim Darby) but if you watch it now it doesn't hold up that well. I hate remakes 99% of the time - to the poster above, the Denzel Washington versions of MANCHURIAN and PELHAM were both complete pieces of shit - but in this case, with the Coens, and Bridges in that role, I'm excited.

Now THIS is a Josh Brolin Western to look forward to
by nasty in the pasty
Bring it on...
-
I grew up in Fort Smith (Hell on the Border!). The Coen Brothers scouted here, but not sure if it was for shooting here or just research. Too bad, really. I grew up with these films and other local legends. I can not wait for this movie. By the way, if you are ever in the area the best bar in the old downtown Fort Smith is Rooster's.
-
whether you like it or not, is such an iconic classic movie that the Coen's are going to have an uphill battle to separate themselves from it. I look forward to the direction that they take but somehow doubt that it will be a true, direct adaptation of the the source material. I mean, it's the Coen's. Their reputation precedes them. I am expecting a weirdo western. And just for good measure, "Rabble".
-
Is ten times better than True Grit. Wayne should have won for that.
-
Rewatched it recently for the first time since it came out, and the tension in that flick is masterful. Oh, and "A Serious Man" was terrific....but dammit, Coens - it's time to make THE YIDDISH POLICEMEN'S UNION! That is so up their alley.
-
fucking remakes.
-
Apparently will feature "Protestant Hymns".... OH we got another CB musical extravaganza on our hands here
-
anyone bitching can stuff it. The Coen's will do a good job.
-
...look the Fly and The Thing were good remakes. I get tired of this shit of reboot and reimagining. Do you think by calling it a reimaginning that will automatically make it better? Just call it a remake and do a good job. Wasn't crazy about this when I first heard about it, but fuck it. There are so few westerns made anymore and even fewer good ones, so I've come to terms with it. But I watched the first one last year(and I think it does hold up) then read the book(which I never had before). The Wayne version is VERY faithful to the novel, I don't know what some of you are talking about. I have seen very few films as faithful to the original source as that. The endings a little different but otherwise, pretty goddamn close.
-
And rightly so. Can't wait to see it. His part is pretty big too.
-
when I was like five or six. She REALLY liked John Wayne. So I can guess how she would have felt about this movie, but as for me...I'm hoping the Coens can pull it off. And I think that they're great directors, but I sincerely hope they don't get all "What the fuck?" with this.
-
I probably should know, but what happened to that?
-
amazing how the studios get pics removed based on DMCA bullshit when it is just someone standing in the street taking a pic with their old camera...sad how fucked up things have gotten.
-
Sorry, wrong thread.
-
Blood Meridian is being cast right now. The director is the guy who played Tom Cruise's piano playing friend in Eyes Wide Shut.
-
Maybe you're right. I watched a lot of it a while back and was struck by how staid and old-studio it felt. But I didn't watch it start to finish, so maybe I should do that before I shoot my mouth off. I know the "fill your hands" scene is pretty damn classic. Have you ever seen THE COWBOYS though? That holds up beautifully and is just amazing, probably my all-time favorite Western. Just the John Williams score alone...
-
But, just to be clear, I loved TG as a kid and have seen it several times. ...I think the visual, as you say, of Bridges as Cogburn could not be more perfect.
-
...and then leave them up no matter who got pissed off, because spy pics don't belong to a studio and all they can do is ask you to take them down? I miss those days. Balls were bigger, spy reports were more fun and the whole thing didn't seem so bought and paid for.
-
...and I bet you jumped to take the photos down in record time, too. Were you afraid of not getting an interview with the Coens during their future press rounds? Or no set visit with a cushy hotel stay?
You guys jumped the shark quite a while ago. -
I hate John Wayne. I'm glad it's based on the novel.
-
Good call, Bah. Her material is perfect for their sensibilities. I wouldn't be surprised if they were fans of hers. I know Charlie Kaufman is a huge fan. She is, by far, my favorite writer. So sad she died at such a young age.
-
That's what you call it if you're biased for the filmmakers, or if the book is actually famous in and of itself. Otherwise you call it a remake.
-
It's "bated breath". "Bate" as in abated. It's not that your breath smells like fish, it's that you're holding it.
-
...a dustpan and broom will have this place tidied up in no time.
