True Grit (Original Soundtrack)

Carter Burwell's score for Joel & Ethan Coen's cinematic version of Charles Portis' novel True Grit. Elmer Bernstein,whose stirring,exciting scores figured heavily in many a John Wayne oater did the music for John Wayne's version, while Burwell has given us a draggy,minimalist,snore-inducing collection of warmed-over gospel music and truly soporific solo piano turns with just a few luke-warm orchestral pieces..
