Always hits the spot.
“Songwriter” never fails to hit the spot. This may sound weird but watching this movie feels like hanging out with old friends. There’s a lot of great dialogue and a lot of laughs. There’s a lot of good music, too. “Songwriter” is filled with great characters and has a terrific villain. Everybody in the cast delivers a solid performance. “Honeysuckle Rose” may be a better movie but “Songwriter” is more fun to watch. Honorable mention: Rip Torn.
not just for country music fans
In Hollywood vernacular this would be the quintessential sleeper: a small gem straight out of left field forced to look after itself in a market geared more toward largely impersonal blockbusters. It isn’t necessary to be a fan of country-western music to enjoy the film: a disarming comic fable about one man’s clever attempt to buck the system, represented here by the music industry. The movie works (in part) because of its oblique, slightly skewed narrative style, courtesy of Bud Shrake’s elliptical screenplay and director Alan Rudolph’s eye for offhand detail. Some of the Southern accents are thick enough to almost require subtitles, but the film is a true original, with a photogenic performance by Willie Nelson as the roguish title character.
