True-Grit-Poster-Crop

If you saw the trailer for the Coen Brothers’ True Grit, you probably saw Jeff Bridges wearing an eye patch, firing pistols on horseback and thought, “Hot damn, has there ever been a single image that could sell an entire movie as easily as this one?”  Unless you were the actual Coen Brothers, in which case you thought, “F*ck you, we’re the Coen Brothers.  Our poster is going to have text.  You still gonna see it?  Yeah, that’s what I thought.  P*ssy.”

I’ve heard that on the set of their movies, instead of golf carts, the Coen Brothers just stomp around everywhere like the Bushwhackers.  True story.
