It's a Coen Brothers masterpiece, starring the amazing Jeff Bridges and the controversial (at least on our podcast) Matt Damon. Oh, and Hailee Steinfeld wasn't quite at the Edge of Seventeen when she OWNED this film. Guys - it's TRUE GRIT!!! (The good one...)
Oh, and we talk about some trailers because we can't control ourselves...
Character Cheat Sheet!
- Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld) - Narrator of our story... Who is 14 and awesome
