    Today is the 13th anniversary of the first time we watched the movie Crazy Heart together. In those 13 years we've loved 7 dogs (said goodbye to 5) and moved across the country twice. So much life in a long and also short time. I'd choose all of it again. So today, we will watch the movie again. 💜

    Found out my writing mentor passed away. Tom Cobb wrote the novel that became the film Crazy Heart earning Jeff Bridges an Academy Award. I was in his workshop when he was over the moon after taking a call from T Bone Burnett. This song, from the film, is one of my all time favorites. ❤️

    Crazy Heart (2009). The cinematography and original score in this are outstanding (worth seeing just for those), outshining a middling story. Performances from Jeff Bridges and Maggie Gyllenhaal are top notch as always. There's even the surprise appearance of Colin Farrell with a pony tail #FilmSky

    2: “Winter Kills” (1979), a thinly veiled JFK assassination conspiracy movie I’m amazed I hadn’t seen until now. ACTOR WHO SINGS: Jeff Bridges, who released a few albums mostly post-“Crazy Heart.” The movie’s a batsh*t wild ride but very slyly humorous. John Huston’s a hoot and steals the film

    Sat next to Kiefer at a movie (Crazy Heart) at the Angelika in NYC in 2009 and then ended up at the same bar. He recognized us and bought us a drink and we discussed how he should have been in the movie instead of Colin Farrell. Very nice conversation all in all.

    That’s exactly it. No matter the role — if he was in the film, his presence was reassuring. For example — Crazy Heart. Jeff Bridges and Robert Duvall singing while fishing in a little boat together in a film about authentic music making and its source in our broken but healing humanity…💔❤️

    same director did Crazy Heart! Mystifying. I did think the movie was better than the book. The book made me angry bc it was 1/10 the making of Nebraska and 9/10 boring stories any Bruce fan already knows from other sources. I love Nebraska and would like to hear about the making of it. Someday 🙏

    a supporting win 35+ years beforehand (beating Ben Johnson??!) wouldn't have prevented Bridges winning Best Actor for CRAZY HEART. Also, my hunch is that his runner-up was Renner, not Clooney (film far too "light.")

    Crazy Heart was a sneaky good movie, not only because Jeff Bridges was amazing in it, but because it was also a pretty accurate representation of the country music industry (along with Colin Farrell giving a scary good performance as a bro-country superstar) So…optimism?

    Think he might have been nominated for The Last Picture Show a few years before that, but it was going to happen for him eventually. Crazy Heart was probably a fitting film/role to win it for after the length of time he had been in the business.

    Watched Crazy Heart for the first time. Jeff Bridges was pretty great and has an excellent singing voice playing a broke down country singer. Movie itself was meh, Jeff won the Oscar. I think it should have went to Morgan Freeman for Invictus or Jeremy Renner for Hurt Locker.
