Film: Crazy Heart / Jeff Bridges





I saw the new Jeff Bridges film "Crazy Heart" last night with my brother in New York. I had been really eager to see this film because it was sort of an indie project that nearly didn't get a distributor once it was completed. Jeff Bridges, one of my all time favorite actors, is just so incredibly real in this film about an old country singer/songwriter still trying to make it and keep success going. It was a wonderful film with a lot of themes close to me as a touring artist and songwriter. Some of it was comical in its "relatability" for me, while other parts were sad because I know the feeling of being on the road and being lonely, low on cash, and wondering if you're pursuing the right path...in the end though, it's about the music and what it does to you.

See this film.

Photos from the wilderness (sort of)

Some photos from New Hampshire where I was able to be reclusive, drink wine, stay up very late, and hone the new songs...
