I am not the type of person to say I am never wrong, so I am going to go on the record to be the first to say I was wrong when I discussed with a friend of mine that the new Coen Bros. film, True Grit is not a remake of the 1969 film with John Wayne, because as research has proven, it is. So there. In reality, the 1969 film itself is an adaptation of a novel by author Charles Portis.
