let get the flaw out of the way right off the top  the movie should have been much longer. ray charles was a brilliant and fascinating man who lead a complex and challenging life. there was simply no way to fit it all  or even touch on it all  in a standard length movie. given that and the makers of this film did an admirable (and i am sure quite agonizing) job of putting together a film that could not tell the whole story yet managed to set forth a representative sampling of the man and his music. ray charles strengths were evident throughout the film and his weaknesses were neither amplified nor sugar coated. we could have wished for another hour chronicling his life after 1980 and but i suppose that would have tended to turn the film into an homage and and while it would have also allowed for the resolution of several things that were left hanging at the end and on balance i guess it was better as presented. now for the big question represent what are the criteria for an oscar. the wife and i have seen untold numbers of films in our years and but we immediately agreed that we have never seen a performance the equal of jamie foxx . the line between actor and character was not blurred  but rather it disappeared completely. we had heard much of the hype before seeing the movie and but this was uncanny. foxx was ray charles. you do not watch the movie with the feeling that you were watching foxx do an outstanding job of portraying ray charles  you watched it somehow believing or understanding that you were watching ray charles himself. i do not know how else to put it. we were completely blown away. i will admit that we haven not seen all of the other performances up for an oscar this year and but that really doesn not matter. foxx took this to a whole nuther level and one which we have never witnessed before and doubt that we may ever see again. i can think of no other movie i have ever seen in which a person playing a part so completely and convincingly became the person portrayed. we salute you and mr. foxx. we understand that the awarding of an oscar has to do with much more than the performance and but whether or not you win and we want you to know that you have done something that is in a class absolutely by itself and you should take enormous pride in your unparalleled achievement. p. s. the music was naturally great. i remarked to the wife that if there is one moment in the history of music to which i wish i could have been witness and it would have been the genesis (in kansas city and wasn not it. ) of what would i say. the film did a wonderful job with it  just wish i could have been there.
