Although I find the poster (not sure if it’s the official one) totally uninspiring The Soloist is a must see film when it comes out.

I was lucky enough to go to an advanced screening of this the other night and I have to say I had no idea what to expect when I sat down to watch it.

Of course we got to watch the uncut version and it would be very interesting to see if they shorten it a bit as it’s quite a long film. That said, I enjoyed every single minute of it. I really wouldn’t want them to cut a single thing out of this.

The two leads, Robert Downey Jnr and Jamie Foxx are exceptional. Hypnotic performances from both.
If you see this movie being lumped with Oscar buzz news next year you know why.

I thought as well as the acting being top notch the direction and cinematography was simply mesmerizing.  Beautiful use of colors and imagery to help the story flow. You almost felt you were right there. Very powerful.

The music in the movie is beautiful. There is no other way to describe it. I’m so glad I got to see this in a good movie theater with decent acoustics.

I’m pretty sure I wasn’t the only one whose eyes were welling up. Even grown men!

I’m not sure when this movie is due out here in the UK?  The official site says March 2009 but I’m guessing it maybe US release first.

I’m a little confused since Oscars is in Feb? Anyway this movie deserves huge awards.

Time for something a little more relaxing on the eye, me thinks. Yes, this is relaxing to me. LOL I’m not finished yet. Refresh your page if you can’t see the black background.

I wanted to add some new features to my blog and my other layout was not letting me. I’m hoping this one does.
