Not much on television watch lately. I found a movie last night from 2009 I had not seen called The Soloist. Robert Downey, Jr and Jamie Foxx were in the movie. I like both of these actors. A newspaper journalist discovers a homeless musical genius and tries to improve his situation. It was something different. Downey played the journalist and Foxx was the schizophrenic homeless man. They both played their role good. It held my attention. Have you seen this movie?
Directed by Joe Wright. With Jamie Foxx, Robert Downey Jr., Catherine Keener, Tom Hollander. A newspaper journalist discovers a homeless musical genius and tries to improve his situation.

I’m unfamiliar with it, but it sounds like my type of movie.

I have not but it sounds rather interesting. You know that I do not watch much television but the past few days I've spent a few hours watching Hell's Kitchen season 16.

@CarolDM I don't know why but I like most of Gordon Ramsay's shows. I do think that Hell's Kitchen is one of the silliest of them all, of course, and there are some things I don't like about it. However, I guess I am just drawn to the drama of it.

It was something different to watch. Never cared for Hell's Kitchen.
