the christmas eve tradition for my mom, sister and i is going to a movie, this year we went to see true grit. as soon as i saw the trailer for true grit a few months back, i knew i had to see it. as expected, the cohen brothers did not disappoint. the film was amazing, the acting was brillant. hailee steinfield as mattie ross was amazing and she is only 14 years old! of course, jeff bridges was brilliant (as usual) as well as matt damon and josh brolin.
the costumes were designed by mary zophres, who has worked on many of the cohen brothers films. you can read an article about the costumes here.
the film is filled with amazing hats, coats, boots, belts and gloves. the film takes place during the 1870's, and is probably one of my favorite costume periods.
love this jacket with the belt!
my favorite was definitely mattie ross' hat and braids. i've already worn braids a few times since i saw the film.
i'm a little disappointed that i didn't find out that the costumes were on display at the archlight in hollywood. i can't seem to figure out if the display is still up or not, but if it is i would totally see true grit again. it is definitely my favorite film i saw this year.
