    True Grit Favorite Passages My favorite passage from the beginning of True Grit is the very first passage of the book. “People do not give it credence that a fourteen-year-old girl could leave home and go off in the wintertime to avenge her father’s blood but it did not seem so strange then‚ although I will say say it did not happen every day. I was just fourteen years of age when a coward going by the name of Tom Chaney shot my father down in Fort Smith‚ Arkansas‚ and robbed him of his life

    March 7‚ 2015 English Composition 2 Casey Baker Paper 4 Analysis of Charles Portis’s novel “True Grit” Some people would argue that in the novel True Grit the main character‚ Mattie Ross‚ is selfish and naïve. I think that Mattie is brave‚ intelligent‚ and focused on her goals. I think that Mattie was very brave; she took on and witnessed many things that would be foreign to all other fourteen-year-old girls. She says “perhaps you can imagine how painful it was for us to go directly from that

    True Grit was a truly breathtaking and inspirational remake of the classic John Wayne film. The movie had a moving storyline of a 14 year old girl protagonist. The movies dialogue I thought was incredibly good for a western film. Just about every character was interesting and had there own unique personality. The story had lots of dialogue but managed to still be quite suspenseful. I thought it was a good story overall especially for a western film. I thought the movie was pretty well directed
