As for Nine, the big-budget musical with bigger Oscar hopes, it did cadge a few nominations but has earned less than Crazy Heart, despite costing eight times as much to make. This weekend's take was a sad $19,000. The movie may as well have shuttered...
...clouded by the saving grace of self-doubt. For any man on a God-ordained mission, whether he's a Muslim or a breakaway Mormon, the end justifies the means, however shabby.
