Soaring Drama with The Soloist
On April 3rd, 2009
DreamWork Pictures is scheduled to release another drama film this April in the Soloist. Starred by Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey Jr., this is a story about about the redemptive power of music.
Journalist Steve Lopez (Oscar nominee Robert Downey Jr.) discovers Nathaniel Anthony Ayers (Oscar winner Jamie Foxx), a former classical music prodigy, playing his violin on the streets of L.A. As Lopez endeavors to help the homeless man find his way back, a unique friendship is formed, one that transforms both their lives.
“The Soloist” is directed by Joe Wright (Golden Globe winner for Best Drama and Oscar nominee for Best Picture “Atonement”).

This could go either way. I do like Downey, though. I saw a good preview of the Soloist and other flicks at MBO (http://www.martiniboys.com/Toronto/articles/2009-Summer-Movie-Guide-1225...).
