TC 37 TRUE GRIT (2010)
People do not give it credence that a young girl could leave home and go off in the wintertime to avenge her father's blood.
But it did happen.
I was just 14 years of age when a coward by the name of Tom Chaney shot my father down and robbed him of his life and his horse and two California gold pieces that he carried in his trouser band. Chaney was a hired man and Papa had taken him up to Fort Smith to help lead back a string of Mustang ponies he'd bought. In town, Chaney had fallen to drink and cards and lost all his money.
He got it into his head he was being cheated and went back to the boarding house for his Henry rifle.
When Papa tried to intervene, Chaney shot him.
Chaney fled.
He could have walked his horse, for not a soul in that city could be bothered to give chase.
No doubt Chaney fancied himself scot-free.
But he was wrong.
You must pay for everything in this world, one way and another.
There is nothing free, except the grace of God.

Del resto, ya lo comentamos en su día, aquí.
Lo que bien empieza, bien acaba, dice el pueblo. No podíamos quedarnos sin los debidos créditos al cierre:
