Country Strong
It took me quite some time before I sat down to watch this film. I’m not a big fan of Gweneth Paltrow, but I do like the movies that I’ve seen her in. I thought she was great in The Talented Mr. Ripley. The fact that the film was about country music may have had something to do with me not wanting to see it. I also didn’t know anyone else that was appearing in the film.
After watching the film I must say it was quite entertaining and I was impressed with the performance by Leigton Meester as a wanna be country singer. It’s almost as if the film were made for her. I’m not sure if she did her own singing, but she has shown that she is more than the actress that we see on Gossip Girl.
Stories about the music industry are usually all the same. Someone has an addiction or get burned out and some new comer who idealizes the star comes in to add tension or take over.
Despite that it is still a pretty good film.
Thanks for stopping by; keep an open mind.
