Summary
Academy Award® nominee Robert Downey Jr. and Academy Award® winner Jamie Foxx star in an extraordinary and inspiring true story of how a chance meeting can change a life. THE SOLOIST tells the poignant and ultimately soaring tale of a Los Angeles newspaper reporter who discovers a brilliant and distracted street musician, with unsinkable passion, and the unique friendship and bond that transforms both their lives. The remarkable performances make for an unforgettable experience in what is hailed as “a courageous and uncompromising film” (Gene Shalit, TODAY). *"THE SOLOIST is an absorbing, illuminating film which is dramatically engaging, keeps it real, in a psychiatric sense, and is never patronising." - Deborah Ross, **The Spectator***
