Debut: 2009
Starring: Jamie Foxx, Robert Downey Jr.
Director: Joe Wright
I was extremely fortunate to fit screening into my crazy schedule this week, but what a beautiful film it was. If you are someone who has ever had any kind of love for music, then this is the movie for you.
I read the book after Christmas, and thought the movie did a bang-up job of capturing the characters and the story. Downey stars as Steve Lopez, an LA Times columnist who finds a story (and a friend) in Nathaniel Anthony Ayers, Jr., a homeless man who once attended Julliard.
The story is beautiful, the acting is beautiful, and the music is breathtaking.
