 'Ray' is a dazzling, richly satisfying achievement
Indeed, with a relatively small budget to recover, Oscar nominations and year-end critical accolades a strong possibility, and Ray Charles' death this past June giving the film a special timeliness, it's hard to see how it can miss being a major hit.
The saga opens in 1948, when 19-year-old blind musician Ray Charles Robinson (Jamie Foxx) is leaving his rural North Florida home for Seattle, where he has a connection with the local jazz scene and hopes of getting a gig at the Rocking Chair Club on Yesler Way.
From Seattle, the movie leapfrogs through the decades, tracing Charles' move to Los Angeles, his years touring the Jim Crow South, his signing by Atlantic Records and his late-'50s breakthrough to find a personal style that merges gospel and rhythm and blues.
