All Respect is Earned
Cogburn in a standoff with Lucky Ned and his boys. http://www.awardsdaily.com/blog/2011/01/31/the-kings-speech-true-grit-and-black-swan-box-office-stories-of-2010/ |
The scene I chose to
evaluate from the movie True Grit
starts at 1:29.24. This scene is right
after LaBeouf saves Maddie from being killed and now Cogburn is in a standoff
with Lucky Ned and his crew. In this
scene the viewer finds out that Cogburn had made up a plan with LaBeouf. After Maddie is safe Cogburn goes after Lucky
Ned. Lucky Ned’s crew consists of a
doctor, and two brothers. Cogburn says
that he has not interest in [them] today,” Which says that the only thing that
Cogburn wants to do is kill Lucky Ned.
All the while LaBeouf and Maddie are sitting up on the ridge waiting for
Cogburn’s signal. When Cogburn takes off
after Lucky Ned and his crew LaBeouf is taking aim, but they are moving too
fast, so at this point the scene is building suspense. Cogburn’s horse is shot and falls on top of
him and this allows Lucky Ned to get a free shot at the well-known Marshall
Cogburn. As Lucky Ned is about to shoot
Cogburn, Labeouf shoots Lucky Ned from the ridge to save Cogburn’s life. After Lucky Ned gets shot LaBeouf gets hit
over the head with a huge rock. Cheney
and Maddie pull for the gun, but Maddie overcomes and says “stand up Tom Cheney.” Maddie finally avenged her father’s death
because she shot Tom Cheney off the ridge.
I think this whole scene is important because it shows that LaBeouf
finally respects Maddie to come after her and save her life. I also think this scene is important because
LaBeouf and Cogburn never got along during the movie and then in this scene
LaBeouf saves Cogburn’s life by shooting Lucky Ned. This shows that Cogburn and LaBeouf finally
got along.
