On August 4 , 2009 Paramount Home Entertainment will be releasing The Soloist on Blu-ray and standard definition DVD.
THE SOLOIST is a moving and emotional story of the transformative power of friendship. When Lopez (Oscar® nominee Robert Downey Jr.) discovers former classical music prodigy Nathaniel Anthony Ayers (Oscar winner Jamie Foxx) playing his violin on the streets of L.A., he endeavors to help the troubled genius find his way back. The unique bond that forms between them makes for a poignant and soaring tale that is “powerful and inspiring” (Shawn Edwards, Fox Television).
