Stanley Fish on "True Grit"

The remake of the great John Wayne film, "True Grit", has been getting a lot of positive buzz.  I liked this review essay, by Stanley Fish, "Narrative and the Grace of God":

The new “True Grit” is that rare thing — a truly religious movie. In the John Wayne version religiosity is just an occasional flourish not to be taken seriously. In this movie it is everything, not despite but because of its refusal to resolve or soften the dilemmas the narrative delivers up.
