Pre-order True Grit on Blu-ray!
Done deal.
I’ll come over and watch it at Gregg’s house. I’m hesitant about this one.
just to be clear, you’ve seen Burlesque and The Tourist multiple times, and your hesitant about watching True Grit.
I’m not a fan of westerns or how the Coen brothers resolve their films, hence my hesitancy.
Really enjoyed this one. Brian, you’re beginning to scare me.
