Jeff Bridges delivers a delicately realistic performance in this ode to the country music that the mainstream forgot.
Crazy Heart follows the life of a washed up alcoholic country artist who's grasping onto a once glorious career by performing in small town bars and bowling alleys. Despite having an all too familiar story and never touching on some subjects as harshly as it should, the film is raised up a notch by the superb performances and wonderful music.

I'd forgotten about this film. It was wonderful. I should buy it to watch it again. When Jeff Bridges connects with the character he's portraying he gives an engaging performance. Great actor.
