Jeff Bridges is so good he makes it look easy.
Jeff Bridges is better in True Grit than he’s ever been, Liebowski included.
But…..Jeff Bridges won the Oscar last year.
Ergo – the impeccable Colin Firth — perfection as the stammering and reluctant King — will win this year’s Oscar. Perhaps it didn’t hurt his The King’s Speech performance that his remarkable co-star, Geoffrey Rush, won the Best Actor Oscar a few years back.
There you have it.
And once I see The Fighter, I’ll weigh in again on whether or not Christian Bale will take the gold statuette. I’m thinking he will.
