The Soloist

A factual dark disturbing glimpse of mental illness and homelessness portrayed by Jamie Foxx. Robert Downey Jr, a newspaper reporter, befriends Foxx who is living on the streets of LA and who has a gift for music but is haunted by demons from his past. Not a feel good movie but superbly acted by both men who are able to draw from each other. A movie with Foxx and Downey has to be seen. 31/2 bananas.
