True Grit is a western movie from 1969, directed by Henry Hathaway. The film is adapted from the 1968 novel of the same title by Charles Portis.

Synopsis

After her father is killed, Mattie Ross (Kim Darby), a headstrong 14-year-old girl, hires the aging, irascible and drunken U.S. Marshal Rooster J. Cogburn (John Wayne) to track down the killer, Tom Chaney (Jeff Corey). To do so, the pair must head into Indian territory and are joined by a young Texas Ranger, La Boeuf (Glen Campbell), who also hopes to capture Chaney and collect a reward.

The spanking scene

The two men are about to leave on their mission. Mattie wants to join them but is told to stay. To shake her off, the men bolt off on their horses, but Mattie, stubbornly, goes after them. Suddenly, out of nowhere, La Boeuf jumps out on her and pulls her to the ground from her horse. He then forces her face down on the ground and breaks off a switch from a nearby bush. Threatening to give her welts that "look like worms", he begins to spank her posterior firmly, causing her to yell out in pain.

More than 40 spanks are administered, about 30 of which are shown on screen, and La Boeuf has no intention of stopping until U.S. Marshal Rooster Cogburn aims a gun at him and rather insists on it. He comments that La Boeuf is enjoying himself a little too much. This may be the first purely sadistic spanking scene to appear in a mainstream Hollywood film. An earlier example of sadism can be found in the British film Lord of the Flies (1963). (See the links to stills of this scene below.)

Kim Darby (born 1947) was actually 21 or 22 when the movie was shot, but looks a lot younger in the movie.
