A movie from a few years ago, starring Jeff Bridges as a country singer so far into the grip of alcoholism that he somehow falls in love with Maggie Gyllenhaal. Before I watched this movie, somebody told me the Jeff Bridges character dies at the end. Spoilers: he doesn’t! He gets sober and becomes successful and an all-around better person. I don’t remember who told me he dies. I wish I did. I’d like to thank them for giving me that most rare and valuable of things: a pleasant surprise. 4.1/5
