The Soloist

So I went to see The Soloist last night, it was quite the sad, and quite the happy all at once! Jamie Foxx plays a homeless guy with possible scitzophrenia. He attended Juliard school of music for two year as a cellist before he started hearing voices in his head. He couldnt take it in the end and so he left to live on the streets, where a journalist, Robery Downey Jnr. finds him.

He starts to write about him, and a woman is so moved that she posts her old cello to the newpaper, and Rober (Mr. Lopez in the film) passes it on to Jamie Foxx (Nathaniel Ayers). He starts playing again, and eventually gets off the streets and sleeps inside again.

The film is based on a true story and the journalist that originally published the article on Nathaniel has now written a book about it. I recommend you all go and see it!
