The Soloist

[alythonian]

I saw this in Edinburgh on Monday and loved it.

It was underplayed and didn't have the huge big happy ending that hollywood could have given it.

I think it's a shame they changed the story to make Steve Lopez single rather than the happily married man he is as I think that true story is better than what they did by making out her was a bit of a loner.

As a musician, albeit an amateur one, the music was fantastic throughout.

It's a shame that so many genius types end up being so close to tipping over at the other end.

8.5/10 from me.
