Robert Downey Jr is flawless in his interpretation of Steve Lopez, the LA Times reporter who told the world the true story of his difficult but moving relationship with Jamie Foxx' character--schizophrenic musical genius Nathaniel Ayers. Downey is calm and understated throughout, an observer in Jamie's confusing but vibrant world. (With just a gesture or a certain look RDJ transmits more emotion than most actors do with their whole bodies.) Joe Wright really immerses you in the homeless peoples' world in LA, and Jamie is both tender and conflicted in a harrowingly difficult role, but it is Robert who really stands out (as always!). In this beautifully stark film we are shown both of these men are soloists in their own right. Bravo!

Robert didn't just act the part of Chaplin, he became him. I don't think I have ever seen a better performance in my life. He definitely should have won the Oscar that year.

My absolute favorite. These movies changed my life and the way I feel about art and the process of filmmaking. Superb in every way!

The brilliant emotional climax to a superlative trilogy. Peter Jackson and his cast and crew have created a masterpiece for the ages.
