Watched Crazy Heart. Couldn't figure out why I had been so resistant to watching until after. I think I must hate self-indulgent/crazy brilliant artist/genius stories, although I loved Vincent and Theo and Be Here to Love Me so I'm not really sure. This definitely goes in the Ray, Beautiful Mind, Pollock blah pile of some nice acting in hideous stories.

"Ray" was directed and cut like a TV movie of the week and it's still shocking to me that it received so many accolades. |

Crazy Heart is way better than Ray.

Watched the Runaways last night. I liked it a lot. It's got the usual cliches of rock biopics but I like music biopics. It's very similar to "What we do is secret" the movie about Darby Crash and the Germs.

I just watched Colin Firth's magnificent performance in A Single Man. Jeff Bridges must have had one hell of a role in Crazy Heart and I'm now contemplating watching it (previously didn't interest me). However, I just don't see how it could top Firth's performance.
Moreover, to not even garner a Best Picture nod is mind-boggling to me. Everything about the movie was nailed to perfection. I loved the way they went in and out of moments. Beautiful is the best way to describe it. And then the score on top of it is underrated. Man, I watched a beauty tonight.

I just watched Crazy Heart, I've had it sitting on my coffee table from Netflix for over a month. I wish I'd watched it sooner; a fantastic story.
