The tongue - twisting banter between teen heroine Mattie Ross (Steinfeld) and a Texas ranger (Damon) would make both Edwina McDunnough and Tom Reagan proud; you expect kid - kicking, one -
eyed sumbitch lawman Rooster Cogburn (Bridges, who now owns the role) to ask «What's the rumpus?»
You fly around, shoot
at sumbitches on the ground and pick up civilians and fly them back to safety.
If you didn't throw a perfect pass out of the double team, that
sumbitch would get it.
«They took it away last year, but
the sumbitches aren't gonna get it again.»
Be careful going around calling people «dumb
sumbitch (es)», because it might just turn out to be you that's the «dumb sumbitch».
The movie pays off like
a sumbitch, in other words, and it earns its satirical blows every step along the way.
One out of every two folks has no idea what the heck that
sumbitch is, anyway.
I might be missing the context behind the speech, but it sounds like the guy saying something more like, «We COULD squeeze
this sumbitch for all it's worth, but that's not our thing.»
