This is the trailer for the new movie based around Steve Lopez's incounter with this homeless musician. The movie is going to be in theatres on April 24th, 2009 and has a cast of such celebrities as Jamie Foxx and Robert Downie Jr. Just by watching the trailer I can tell that they have followed the book closely making sure everything was covered. It's sometimes a dream crusher when movies are made from books, having built up your own image of your favourite characters or favourite part in the book. However for me having started reading this book after already knowing about the movie, it took away some of the personal imagination and gave me what the characters look like. All in all this looks like a well made movie and as far as i know it follows the book fairly closely, it should be able to satisfy all the viewers that have previously read this novel.
