Some films just scream Oscar. THE SOLOIST, the new film by Joe Wright (ATONEMENT), starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jamie Foxx, doesn’t just scream Oscar–it climbs the highest peak and shrieks it, loud and louder and loudest–for all the land to hear. The film is essentially what you get if you take RAIN MAN, MR HOLLAND’S OPUS, and SHINE, add two white-hot academy award-winning actors, toss it all in a blender and serve it up in a cold tall glass with like, three cherries, some whipped cream and an umbrella. Check out the trailer, which in itself deserves an Oscar, BELOW.
