The latter took a swerve for them away from the comic violence that usually employs their work to a very serious and beautifully photogrpahed western. But True Grit to me proves their comedic and simultaneously seroius mood still exists, and with the help of Deakins', great performances all round (Steinfeld a breakthrough) cinematography and the always impeccable direction of the Coens, this simple story is elevated beyond that of the 1969 original, sticking closer to Portis' book.
