The belief that it would make him more dead

True Grit

Crit

Oh, my: for the most part the same story told in 1969, just told infinitely better in every way.

My sense about the language of the earlier version was accurate: many of the same lines are heard here, but there are also many more of what are presumably Portis's words--damn, I do have to put that on my 2011 reading list!

Maybe something else Coenish with dinner tonight?
