Crazy Heart

CriticsCritics: 87
AudienceAudience: 7.1

An alcoholic, washed-up country singer meets a reporter and forms a connection with her and her young son. As their relationship develops, he faces the consequences of his hard-living lifestyle and considers whether he can rebuild his life and career.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you appreciate intimate redemption dramas, strong acting, and country music, especially films like A Star Is Born or Tender Mercies; Not for you if you need brisk pacing or a fresh plot.
