March 7‚ 2015 English Composition 2 Casey Baker Paper 4 Analysis of Charles Portis’s novel “True Grit” Some people would argue that in the novel True Grit the main character‚ Mattie Ross‚ is selfish and naïve.

True Grit Favorite Passages My favorite passage from the beginning of True Grit is the very first passage of the book. “People do not give it credence that a fourteen-year-old girl could leave home and go off in the wintertime to avenge her father’s blood but it did not seem so strange then‚ although I will say say it did not happen every day.

True Grit was a truly breathtaking and inspirational remake of the classic John Wayne film. The movie had a moving storyline of a 14 year old girl protagonist. The movies dialogue I thought was incredibly good for a western film. Just about every character was interesting and had there own unique personality.
