Best Actor Winner: Jeff Bridges – Crazy Heart. (click for Crazy Heart Review)

Why I’d pick him: Bridges’ portrayal of Bad Blake, a down and out, has been, alcoholic country musician who falls in love with a single mom, is one of the most human performances I’ve seen in years. Bad Blake has made a thousand bad choices and it will take him a thousand more choices to recover himself.

Virtue in Crazy Heart: This movie is all about redemption, even from the oh-so-human holes we dig ourselves into.
