To those that said it is not a remake of the John Wayne movie, that is exactly what I heard. They say it is completely different and fans of the old movie won't see many similarities. Again, it is their interpretation of the book.

Really? True Grit was standard "coming of age" assigned middle school reading when I was coming up. The movie was also (I think) John Wayne's only Oscar win.
Read the book I guess, but I probably wouldn't watch the original right before watching the new one in the theaters because you'll be comparing them, and it's not supposed to be a remake.
