Ray & Oscars

So we watched Ray last night. Good movie, not great. Way too long. Jamie Foxx was very good, although I don't think he actually sang any songs. The dialogue was pretty trite a lot of the time. The wife was made out to be a doormat & the movie doesn't explain why she would stay with him after he was unfaithful & drug addicted all those years. The movie ends 40 years before he died, so we're left to assume nothing special happened during those 4 decades. So Million Dollar Baby is still the front-runner, in my opinion....still haven't seen Aviator. The best thing about Ray was showcasing all of Ray Charles' great music. Maybe I'll get the soundtrack.
