True to it's Grit

TRUE GRIT is great. When I polished the English dialogue for TAKAMINE I researched 1900's literature and found that they didn't use contractions back then (do not vs. didn't) but I found the dialog clunky & funny so I restrained myself & kept the dialog semi modern. But the Coen bro in TRUE GRIT really take that clunky & funny dialog & make it their own - very admirable writing as always.
