Well, if the teaser was minor and haunting, the full length trailer for the Coen Brothers' "True Grit" turns the volume way up and increases the number of gunshots. But no worries, the film still looks great and the new trailer is obviously a much more broadly appealing piece of marketing material.In the new spot, we get far more time with all the principal players, and Matt Damon is still not quite convincing in his role as Texas Ranger La Beouf. That said, in the script we read, his character provided a lot of comic relief and ended up being one of our favorites so we're still curious and hopeful. Hailee Steinfeld and Jeff Bridges look like a formidable duo as they hunt down Tom Chaney (a menacing Josh Brolin), the man who killed the young girl's father. So yes, we're still very excited for what should be a late Oscar season player.
The song in the trailer is Johnny Cash's "God's Gonna Cut You Down" and the film hits on Christmas Day.
