I'm trying to remember the name of a movie, that I only saw ads on TV for, and it's been a while...
The movie plotline, goes something like this: Two friends, one a virtuoso violinist, go their separate ways. Years later, the one who was not the violinist, runs across the one who was, who apparently suffered a mental breakdown, and was playing on the streets for change from passersby.
Anyone remember the name of this movie, or even a actor who was in it?

Don’t know about anybody else but personally I think Jamie Foxx is a far better actor than Denzel Washington.

It sounds like something similar to a movie called “Reign Over Me” with Adam Sandler.

Sorry, I wouldn’t know the name.....

i probably wouldn’t know the difference.The difference between a 'cello and a violin is that the 'cello burns longer.

I agree about Foxx, but Denzel just has a presense on screen, did you see Washington in “Man on Fire”?

I think Jamie Foxx is one of the best actors of our time. In the movie Ray he did Ray Charles better than Ray Charles.

I don’t think I’ve seen man on fire. Foxx was awesome as Ray Charles.

I am one of those extremist people who votes with their pocketbook. I don’t care how good foxx is, when he opens his mouth and talks stupid stuff I call it a day. All I know is Denzell gives proper respect and courtesy to our troops. BTW, I don’t watch any movie with an actor who is part of FAG in team america either. Hubby calls me vendictive and mean...that about sums it up!

I agree about D.W in ‘Man on Fire’. I reccomend it. It IMO was an under-rated movie. it was stark, and it was dark. and it was a powerful performance.

Just my own opinion (which is meaningless, believe me) but I felt that
August Rush was a much better movie. But then I also liked
Daredevil. I don't get why people let an actor's politics get in the way of them enjoying a movie. Jamie Foxx played a great character in
The Kingdom, a movie about American FBI agents taking on terrorists in Saudi Arabia and kicking ass.
