Crazy Heart Soundcheck

This scene in “Crazy Heart” is probably my favorite music business scene in any movie ever, including documentaries. Bear, the front-of-house goober, tries to tell Jeff Bridges’ character, Bad, that he can’t believe his lyin’ ears and that he should trust someone who probably never critically listened to a record in his life. Instead, Bad does what every musician should do; he stops the rehearsal until Bear does what he tells him to do.
