That was his big thing was he wanted Lloyd to play.
It's got to be old.
And then eventually he like Lloyd had died.
He aged into it.
He has an Oscar.
He's seen his box office now.
And then they fuck up every single aspect of the movie.
And he rocks in that movie.
But you're right.
Not the true grit.
The Crazy Heart moment was bizarre because there was this feeling of, like...
oh, I guess we never realized that he's overdue for an Oscar.
He didn't have that same kind of narrative to him as like, when are they going to give it to DiCaprio or Julianne Moore or some of these people?
Because his nominations were spaced out.
And it was always a sort of like, oh, right.
And then that movie like premieres at Toronto and everyone's like, fuck, we could just get him the Oscar.
This movie is whatever.
