Crazy Heart

I loved the music in this movie. T-Bone Burnett does it again. Jeff Bridges plays the washed up alcoholic country singer to perfection. My only complaint with this movie is that if there were ever a movie to perfectly portray how Hollywood favors younger actresses, this is it. Maggie Gyllenhall is good in the movie, I just think she is too young for this role. This role belongs to an actress in her 40's. I had a hard time buying 30 yr old Maggie with the perfect body falling for fat, drunk, old Jeff Bridges.
