The Goop queen has gone country: Gwyneth Paltrow, the starlet who has recently been keeping only to her blog and the Iron Man franchise, might be back in a big way. The trailer for her new film "Country Strong" was just released, and if it is as successful as the trailer hopes it will be, Gwyneth could have a "Crazy Heart"-sized comeback in her future.I mention "Crazy Heart" in particular, not only because Jeff Bridges' recent Oscar triumph was an epic comeback, but because Paltrow's "Country Strong" seems to be basically - to put it bluntly - the same exact thing.The film follows Paltrow as a country star who has fallen from fame as her alcoholism takes over her life.

It's about time for her return to critical acclaim.In addition to the film industry's love of comebacks and...more
