RAY- THE MOVIE

To anyone who has not seen this flick yet, go head n c it, cause it's definitely worth it!!!

Ray is the musical biographical drama of American legend Ray Charles. Born in a poor town in Georgia, Ray Charles went blind at the age of seven shortly after witnessing his younger brother's accidental death. Inspired by a fiercely independent mother who insisted he make his own way in the world, Charles found his calling and his gift behind a piano keyboard.

Touring across the Southern musical circuit, the soulful singer gained a reputation and then exploded with worldwide fame when he pioneered incorporating gospel, country, jazz and orchestral influences into his inimitable style. As he revolutionized the way people appreciated music, he simultaneously fought segregation in the very clubs that launched him and championed artists' rights within the corporate music business. "Ray" provides an portrait of Charles' musical genius as he overcomes drug addiction while transforming into one of this country's most beloved performers.

The extraordinary life story of Ray Charles.
A man who fought harder and went further than anyone thought possible .
- preview from http://hoyts.ninemsn.com....e/1051.asp

The story of this awesomely talented man was just so brilliantly woven 2gether. Jamie Foxx plays Ray Charles brilliantly and was very believable in his role. Heart-wrenching, intriguing, awe-inspiring and musical- if you don't take my word for it, all i gotta say is- is dat my nana is 81 years old and usually falls asleep halfway through films!!! It was wayyyy past her bedtime and she was awake ALL the way through it- and as she simply put it, 'how could I fall asleep with such music and such an interesting storyline?' - I rest my case!! Go out n see it!!! thumbs up! woot! booty! music cool

I saw Ray when I was over in the States recently and loved it to bits. Then I cam back to Sydney and saw it again, this time on a HUGE screen outdoors at the St. George Open Air Cinema - which has the screen set up actually IN Sydney Harbour. Anyway, needless to say it just made me enjoy the film for the second time even more. I might even end up buying it when it comes out in OZ. It's just a very well made movie.

biggrin
