I love that movie! I was so sad when Rays brother died. It made me cry. It talks about half his life and what happen. He used drugs and so on. I love all his songs. He had you know what with other women then he had 2 wifes. The second one he married died. You should see the movie it's realy sad and nice. If you saw it post here

Even though I thin Ray Charles is one of the best muscians out there, it still doesnt mean Im going to like the movie.
Foxx was excellent and the music was good too (because its Ray Charles) but I felt it was the typical bio movie just like everybody ones else.
You start by getting a star with amazing talent. Add some tension, sprinkle a little fancy flashbacks, add music (optional if star is a musician), have turmoil with wife, show scene on where he's life turns around and then finish off with a crowing achievement and a title screen saying how good they are, thier family, and that the family was standing beside them when they died.
If black, add a scene where they go against racism.
Maybe that just means, we dont need movies from every celeberty out there. I am surprised they diddnt focus more on him overcomming his blindness. Isnt that why ray charles is so special, because he is blind?
