The Dude Woos Rachel Dawes In Country Music IndieBy Katey Rich: 2009-07-20 21:51:00
Yeah, we all love Jeff Bridges when he's rocking the evil shaved head in Iron Man 2 or reinventing the bathrobe as The Dude. But can those of you who love Jeff Bridges and harbor a crush on Maggie Gyllenhaal-- and that probably includes all of us-- handle the sight of him wooing Jake's older sister?This romantic pairing actually happens in Crazy Heart, an indie drama just picked up for distribution by Fox Searchlight. According to Variety Bridges plays an aging country singer who gets a new lease on life through a relationship with reporter (Gyllenhaal). He's also got a mentor to deal with, played by Robert Duvall, and is a mentor himself to an up-and-comer played by Colin Farrell. Yes, Colin Farrell is apparently playing a country singer. It really says something that this isn't the strangest part of the story. Of course, Searchlight has just about flawless taste when it comes to picking up indies, and their plan to release the film next spring makes it sound like a nice crowd-pleaser, not an Oscar juggernaut like Slumdog Millionaire. But really, The Dude and Rachel Dawes, together? Are we really going to let them make this happen?
