FREE Movie – The Soloist

Submitted by astone on Wednesday, 22 July 2009No Comment
FREE Movie – The Soloist

Continuing the awesome trend of free Summer movies, BSAC is presenting The Soloist this Thursday, July 23. The movie will be shown in the HUC Alumni Auditorium at 8pm. If you don’t know much about this movie, I have convieniently provided the plot summary below:

In 2005, the only thing hurting Los Angeles Times columnist Steve Lopez more than his face from a recent bike accident was his pressing need for story ideas. That is when he discovers Nathaniel Ayers, a mentally ill, homeless street musician who possesses extraordinary talent, even through his half-broken instruments. Inspired by his story, Lopez writes an acclaimed series of articles about Ayers and attempts to do more to help both him, and the rest of the underclass of LA have a better life. However, Lopez’s good intentions run headlong in the hard realities of the strength of Ayers’ personal demons and the larger social injustices facing the homeless. Regardless, Lopez and Ayers must find away to conquer their deepest anxieties and frustrations to hope for a brighter future for both of them.

Here’s the poster.
