    Three and a half. Joe Wright still likes to add too much of his arthouse cinematography to such an American-made film, which has ruined Atonement, and nearly ruined it this time. Advantages: The story is indeed quite moving, and Bright Tail tells us that there is still true love in the world. ....

    How can professionals at the top understand the suffering of the people at the bottom? Help must also be methodical, communication must be sincere and sincere in order to truly understand other people's thought world. Lucky for Mr. Ayers, because he is a musician, the musicians satisfy the white vanity and show their hypocrisy! And what about the others on the streets? They need more people's care and help! The so-called humanitarianism of the United States, alas. ....

The Soloist quotes

  • [last lines]

    Steve Lopez: "Points West" by Steve Lopez. A year ago, I met a man who was down on his luck and thought I might be able to help him. I don't know that I have. Yes, my friend Mr. Ayers now sleeps inside. He has a key. He has a bed. But his mental state and his well-being, are as precarious now as they were the day we met. There are people who tell me I've helped him. Mental health experts who say that the simple act of being someone's friend can change his brain chemistry, improve his functioning in the world. I can't speak for Mr. Ayers in that regard. Maybe our friendship has helped him. But maybe not. I can, however, speak for myself. I can tell you that by witnessing Mr. Ayers's courage, his humility, his faith in the power of his art, I've learned the dignity of being loyal to something you believe in, of holding onto it. Above all else, of believing, without question, that it will carry you home.
