Top Ten Jeff Bridges Perfs

February 8, 2010 by Sasha Stone in AWARDS CHATTER | Leave a comment

Kris Tapley does his rundown of the top ten best Jeff Bridges performances for Fandango‘s awards watch section. What is stunning about it, I guess, is that he doesn’t place Crazy Heart at the top of the list. I thought I’d add a poll for you to be the judge of the films Kris put on his list to see if you agree.

Kris’ list:

1. Starman
2. The Big Lebowski
3. The Door in the Floor
4. Crazy Heart
5. Fearless
6. The Contender
7. The Jagged Edge
8. Tucker: A Man and His Dreams
9. Bad Company
10. Thunderbold and Lightfoot.

My own top ten after the cut.

1. The Big Lebowski
2. Crazy Heart
3. The Last Picture Show
4. The Fabulous Baker Boys
5. The Contender
6. The Fisher King
7. Fearless
8. Against All Odds (guilty pleasure)
9. King Kong (another guilty pleasure)
10. Starman

  It takes a lot to shake the tree of discontent where the Oscars are concerned. Most film critics and media writers feel it’s borderline irresponsible to even care about such a silly contest, let alone write about it. The Oscars are then left to the hardcore fans of the Oscars, …

  28 Jan 2012
  
  There were many different directions the Oscar race for 2011 could have gone but didn’t. They could have honored Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which is better than at least five of the current Best Picture nominees, and the darkest of its long and fruitful series. They could have …

  The actors will chime in with their favorites this Sunday when the Screen Actors Guild awards unfurl.

  It’s really hard, isn’t it, to defend, spend time on, invest any emotion on an institution that could continually, and repeatedly, up to and including this year, make such ridiculous choices when the better films are staring them right in the face. Blame the public too, blame the critics especially, …

  Major props must go out to Anne Thompson for sticking hard to Tree of Life and never wavering. Thompson knew that the passionate support for the film (boomer nostalgia cum familial masterpiece) would drive it over when it was all about the number one votes. My biggest mistake was assuming …

  Back in 1999, when Oscarwatch.com first began, the highest of priorities was to correctly predict the Oscar race. There was only one other site, for the most part, that predicted the Oscars – Tom O’Neil’s GoldDerby.com. Tom’s site collected mostly film critics who lined up to give their Oscar …

- The Descendants Poised to Upset in Best Picture?
  20 Jan 2012
  
  There are few movies that feel like they could give The Artist some heat: Hugo and The Descendants. Perhaps, as many a Tweeter will tell you, “it’s been The Artist since Cannes.” And okay, fine. Maybe. What makes The Artist such a threat? It is loved by many, hated by …
