Crazy Heart 2009
Reviewed Apr 28, 2012
seffers’s review:
Really good soundtrack by T-Bone Burnett gets a star. Almost gets another star for reminding me about Robert Duvall and his film The Apostle which I really enjoyed. Super low-key performances by Jeff Bridges and (especially) Maggie Gyllenhaal as the leads, but have already given a star for the soundtrack. Overall, left pondering the point of this film, though the quality of acting makes it worth watching.
Thank you for reminding me to add The Apostle to my Lovefilm list. I've still never watched it.
In that case your pending review of Crazy Heart should automatically get an extra star added to it.
Hmm, "not currently available for rental". I mean, what?
Keep your eye on Film4 then - it was on a week or two ago, and they tend to recycle.
