Life-Changing Art: Jeff Bridges

What piece of art changed your life? How did it affect you?

The first three notes of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. Why does it make us feel that way? It has that spacious, poignant, happy, sad feeling. It's the whole catastrophe, all together. Three notes. It's the mystery of it that affects me.

Jeff Bridges released his debut Blue Note CD on Tuesday. The Big Lebowski came out on Blu-Ray this week, too.
