To Kill a Mockingbird came out in 1962 and I was too little to see or remember it. But True Grit, well, I was 11 when it came out and loved playing cowboys and indians. I have it on DVD. Still a classic!

This was pretty risque dialog for an 11 year old, but do you remember this scene?

[Rooster confronts the four outlaws across the field]
Ned Pepper: What's your intention? Do you think one on four is a dogfall?
Rooster Cogburn: I mean to kill you in one minute, Ned. Or see you hanged in Fort Smith at Judge Parker's convenience. Which'll it be?
Ned Pepper: I call that bold talk for a one-eyed fat man.
Rooster Cogburn: Fill your hands, you son of a bitch.

That did it, now I gotta see that movie again.

eBay should have one for sale & I'm adding it to my collection.
