Case Study - True Grit

Directors and Writers: Ethan Coen and Joel Coen

Cast: Jeff Bridges, Hailee Steinfield and Matt Damon.

Release Date: December 22, 2010

Genre: Western

Budget: $38,000,000

Gross: $244,900,000



Idea into making the film: Ethan Coen stated that the film would be a more faithful adaption of the novel than the 1969 version. This film is a re make from the old 'True Grit' film, these directors made a newer version to get a bigger audience and the audience would be massive because everyone already know the film from watching it over 30 years ago so everyone would be interested in watching it again and how the same film could change over a long period of time with more special effects and new equipment introduced into the film industries. The directors were maybe so into the film and they liked it so much they wanted to do the same storyline but target the new audience in this new generation.
