Based on the book by Steve Lopez, The Soloist tells the poignant and ultimately soaring tale of a Los Angeles Times newspaper reporter (Downey Jr.), who discovers a brilliant classical street musician named Nathaniel Ayers (Foxx), who has unsinkable passion, and the unique friendship and bond that transforms both their lives. (Gary Reber)
