Casting call for 12-16 year old girls Saturday: Coen Brothers film

From John Beifuss's story in GoMemphis:

The Coen Brothers — the Academy Award-winning filmmakers responsible for such modern classics as “No Country for Old Men,” “Fargo” and “The Big Lebowski” — are looking for a Memphis girl with “steely nerves,” a “straightforward manner” and, yes, true grit.

An open casting call will be held from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturday at the East Memphis Hilton at 939 Ridge Lake Blvd. for the potentially star-making role of spunky young Mattie Ross, a lead character in the Coens’ upcoming remake of the famous 1969 Western, “True Grit.”
