I'm happy to have someone backing my position on the performance. I don't know why everyone else so far has been so unappreciative.Damien wrote:I greatly admire Clooney's and Firth's performances, and either of them would be a worthy Oscar winner. But Jeff Bridges gives a great performance and for once a career Oscar win will actually be for a deserving performance. Bridges completely inhabits and gets under the skin of his character. It's beautiful acting.kaytodd wrote:I am looking forward to seeing Crazy Heart and I'll bet I will thoroughly enjoy Jeff's performance. He will be a deserving Oscar winner and will give another great speech. But the best 2009 male lead performances I have seen this year were from Colin Firth and George Clooney and I predict I will feel the same after seeing Crazy Heart.

The great thing in the world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving. It's faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes a life worth living. Oliver Wendell Holmes
