...that meticulous craft, Bridges still gives such an organic performance, you sometimes forget it's him you're watching (peering into that face, you'd swear it's Kris Kristofferson) and that he's playing a fictional character. When Bridges sings Bad's wistful, weary songs - written by producer T-Bone Burnett and a group of other musicians, including Ryan Bingham, who has a small part in the film - you feel like this is a guy you might be lucky to find at your local honky-tonk.
