Review of The Soloist (2009) by Tedrico L — 21 Feb 2014
ANOTHER TEDDY FLIX MOVIE REVIEW: "The Soloist (2009)" -- ELECTRIFYING TO THE SOUL! The Soloist is a POWERFUL FILM, based on a true story about a schizophrenic, homeless, Fine Arts trained dropout (played by Jamie Foxx) from Julliard who winds up playing violin and cello on L.
A.'s skid row and under I-710 overpasses. But the beauty of this film and shear DIRECTORIAL GENIUS on behalf of director, Stephen Wright is ... clearly research was done on what urban homelessness is like, .
.. as every detail about life on the streets was adhered to without question. When you factor in the SUPERB ACTING on Robert Downey's part with Jamie Foxx's ability to totally assume his character's role, become that character, and render a tear jerking, Oscar performance .
.. you get a film that beyond a shadow of a doubt rates 5 of 5 stars! A MUST SEE!
