Kristofferson's appearance in director John Sayles' film Lone Star (1996) marked a turning point in his film career. Taking a supporting role as a corrupt sheriff, the 60-year-old actor displayed a flair for character parts and villains that vastly increased his offers from Hollywood in the late '90s and led to his appearances in such major-studio action features as Fire Down Below, Blade, and Payback. He also earned admiring critical notices as a James Jones-like novelist in A Soldier's Daughter Never Cries and in another Sayles film, Limbo. By the turn of the century, complaining that he hadn't had time to tour as a singer in years, Kristofferson was looking forward to additional film work.

Although his early work was frequently repackaged and released in new compilation packages, Kristofferson released very little new work as the 21st century dawned. A live set, Broken Freedom Song, appeared in 2003 on John Prine's Oh Boy Records, and another Don Was-produced album, This Old Road, saw the light of day in 2006 on New West Records.

  • Wow, what a great song. Just touches deep down in you. Had listened to it for the 7th time now before moving on and just wanted to comment on the song and the man. Oh, BTW, my favorite movie of Krist is Lone Star. Great movie. Sadly, not too many have seen it.

  • Dear God, I wish all Country music was this good...

  • Kris always knew how to go there and express what so few can, The Truth about Life Love from a depth few even know of in these cold times in which we now live.. we all have a road to walk w/a future and a past.. May Kris keep on walking and singing about this walk of Life that is both Beautiful and Deeper than most ever care to look to witness... Life a teacher that cant be replaced by anything.Kris has much to draw on from his life to express what He does so well,The Truth about this life.

  • Kris will always be my first love, even if we never met...

  • such a beautiful song but makes me sad.... What a great singer

  • Kris Kristofferson, John Prine, and Bob Dylan are the three male cornerstones of Folk/Rock music.

    They are unparalleled, except for Linda Ronstadt.
