That is the coolest steam engine. I was immediately impressed by it at the beginning of the movie. Anybody know if it's a reproduction? or original?

[tohottie24]

Damn, that is so cool, i worked on a movie set with will ferrell and it was soooooooo awesome seeing him and how everyone works on the set, i really want to get into the biz.

[misaonthefly]

where is she...

[Luckygirl924]

where is this shot? hollywood?

[HandbellOlive]

where did they film?

[jarrett2005x]

@HandbellOlive Texas and New Mexico.

[HandbellOlive]

@jarrett2005x What part of Texas/New Mexico? Do you know? I live in TX and I have family in NM... it'd be funny if I was just miles from where they shot and didn't even know it xD

[jarrett2005x]

@HandbellOlive She didn't say. I saw a clip of her interview and she just said the states of TX and NM.

[HandbellOlive]

@jarrett2005x lol okay, thanks!! I figured out that they shot the texas part in Granger, tx. What I'm ticked about is I live less than 2 hours from there and I didn't know about it :( I would've went!! haha

This is good for anyone that thinks film sets are like the flash and glamor of the award events.

Film sets are very very industrial. To the new actors that ask me about working on film sets I like to tell them this phrase: "glitz and glam is your reward for rolling through dirt and sand"

It's a little cheesy, but it fits. Btw - hope the steam engine train has breaks! lol. :)

Seeing some of the casting tryout videos for Mattie Ross on YT makes me realize what a "gem" they found in Hailey Steinfeld! She is such a bright light in "True Grit" that I know she will have great success!

[shockwave68516]

I wonder how they find black actors to play slaves...I mean do they put out casting calls for "slaves?"

[gwl1983]

saw this film today its brilliant

[unclaimedtreas]

What a fantastic locomotive!

[WAITilikecookies]

Lol.

Its funny how shes been in only one movie and shes already got a small fanbase haha. Oh well. True Grit was a fucking awesome movie...

[kevsoca]

this looks fun!

[Bluesbabesrv]

Was it windy the whole time? lol

How were you lucky enough to be right (almost) in the mix? Thanks for posting the clips.

This is one movie I am getting more and more excited about seeing.

[tejastiger61]

I Love the original too, I've got it memorized ..It will always be one of my favorites ... However as a kid .. I always wondered where in the Hell did all those mountains come from and golden aspen trees ..... Seeing how I had grown up in the Ft Smith/ oklahoma area where the book takes place.. The books ending ain't near as happy as the Hollywood/ Hal Wallis ending... I'm looking forward to having something to geaux see this Christmas, Thanks to  the Brothers C.

[gfiftyfive]

This is going to be a winner.

[RCmack]

Thanks for posting these True Grit filming set videos.

Watching them makes me realize how hard it is to film movies. Everybody(cameramen, producers,directors, actors), has to do a movie scene take perfect in order for it to work. If one person messes up a take, they have to do the scene all over again.

Hailee Steinfeld and Jeff Bridges were good choices for roles in the True Grit remake. Bridges is one of the best actors.

[ColonelCuster]

Looks good to me.

They have Hailee looking like Mattie is suppose to look like.

I'm looking forward to seeing this version.

I'm a big fan of the Duke and love his film version, but this is going to be good too.

Now I want to see how they have Jeff Bridges made up.

[theundone]

Any idea how long they'll be shooting here? I'm hoping they're still there in 2 weeks when I go down.

[JVISTIZ]

@theundone They will be the for the next few weeks.
