True Grit

After hired hand Tom Chaney murders the father of 14-year-old Mattie Ross, she seeks vengeance and hires U.S. Marshal ''Rooster'' Cogburn, a man of ''true grit,'' to track Chaney into Indian territory. As the two begin their pursuit, a Texas Ranger, La Boeuf, joins the manhunt in hopes of capturing Chaney for the murder of a Texas senator and collecting a substantial reward. The three clash on their quest of bringing to justice the same man.
