2009: CRAZY HEART - For Your Consideration for Best Actor
Manage episode 351317002 series 2865408
Jeff Bridges and Colin Farrell as country music icons?! Where do we sign?
In this episode, Mike and Brian dive into director Scott Cooper's "Crazy Heart," an intimate character study of an aging and down-on-his-luck musician (Bridges, who won the Oscar for Best Actor). The film owes a lot to Darren Aronofsky's "The Wrestler," and Mike and Brian parse out those comparisons. They talk "fake" biopics, the complicated world of happy endings, how original music compares to the ultra-famous songs that frame out films about real-life legends like Ray Charles and Johnny Cash, then decide whether or not this movie will make their top fives of 2009.
