The Soloist

A beautiful scene.
I just watched The Soloist ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0821642/?ref_=sr_1 ) and wrote a review about it in Swedish for a school thing so I figured I might point out here as well what a lovely film it was.

Based on a true story and magnificently portrayed characters by Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey Jr., and standard good directing by Joe Wright (not astoundingly special, just very good).

I'm a sucker for rescue stories and this one is about Steve Lopez, journalist, who finds homeless Nathaniel Ayers playing the violin on the street. All in all a very well told story with a fabulous soundtrack that you can listen to HERE.

G'day!
