Following the murder of her father by a hired hand, a 14-year-old farm girl sets out to capture the killer. To aid her, she hires the toughest U.S. Marshal she can find—a man with 'true grit'—Reuben J. 'Rooster' Cogburn.
These foreign films share the same emotional core, themes, and structural feel as True Grit. Every one of them has confirmed English subtitles or dubbing.
Both films sit with loyalty under pressure and rage. They share the same lens on class and money and corrupt institutions. Both move the same way too, cold and detached, dark comedy, slow burn, and escalating.
