Everyone at least once in their life will meet someone with incredible talent. Talent so astounding it could change their life. How does a person help such a gifted person climb. from deprivation to abundance? This is a great movie about love of the arts; mentoring fellow human beings; and expectations. This movie is well done. and original.

I read the book first and found it very enlightening. Unfortunately, as it happen with screen adaptations, there was too much book to fit into a movie. The movie had very little depth. It hit all of nthe major points but grazed over all of them.

The story is a wonderful tale of compassion and brotherly love executed with less than stellar precision. Great performances by Foxx and Downey. The way the director tried to show a schizophrenic mind detracted from the bond between the two main characters.
