The Soloist

The Soloist! Yeah it's a movie that i watched last night. Its truly depply amazing movie!

A schizophrenic, Nathaniel Ayers (Jamie Foxx), is a homeless musician from Skid Row, Los Angeles who dreams of playing at Walt Disney Concert Hall. Through "chance", he meets a journalist, Steve Lopez (Robert Downey Jr.), who tries to help this mentally disturbed man get "back in his feet" and make his dreams come true. Based on a book by Lopez, an accouunt of his relationship with Ayers. Dr. Oliver Sacks, a famed neurologist, authenticates the Lopez account in his most recent book, "Musicophilia".

Steve Lopez hasn't had a good story in a while and the newspaper where he works is laying off journalist due to falling ratings. He had been looking for a story in all the wrong places; when he happened upon a homeless violinist, Nathaniel Ayers, playing beautifully with only 2 strings. Ayers was a former Julliard student who begin to trust Lopez, and a friendship grows, but not necessarily to the benefit of either. While Lopez intention is to help Ayers; he isn't sure that he has in the end.

Stunning movie!
