Best Film of the Year

Rating: 10/10 (1 January 2005)

I absolutely loved RAY, Jamie Foxx was outstanding! The soundtrack was magnificent. Overall an incredible movie with such talented actors. I think that what I liked best is the fact that this movie did cover his entire life, not just a small segment. So many biographies are limited so you miss a lot of important facets of someone's life. I just saw the "Aviator" and I wasn't thrilled to find out that it was only covered a few years of Howard Hughes life, they left out his wives and a host of other things. Jamie Foxx should win the Oscar, he is by far the best actor this year. I really thought I was watching Ray Charles himself. I understand he sat with Ray to better understand him and it definitely paid off.
