Synopsis of “The Soloist” film

Steve Lopez is a journalist working for the L.A. Times. He is divorced and

works for his ex-wife, Mary, an editor. One day, he heard a violin being played

beautifully. When Lopez first met Nathaniel, he was playing a violin with two strings

and talked on the Beethoven statue. Lopez approached him to investigate and they

started to make conversations to know each other. During the conversation that

follows, Lopez learned that Nathaniel Ayers was a homeless schizophrenic and he

once attended the Julliard (one of the most prestigious performing arts schools in the

world).

Lopez was curious as to how a former student of such a prestigious school

ended up on the street, he contacts Juilliard but there was no record of Ayers

graduating from it exists. Though at first figuring a schizophrenic who was talented

with a violin was not worth his time, Lopez soon realized that he had no better story

to write about. Luckily, he soon learned that Nathaniel did attend Juilliard, but

dropped out after two years.

One reader is so touched when she read the Lopez’s article about Nathaniel.

She sent him a cello for Nathaniel. Lopez brought it to him and Nathaniel was very

surprised when looking at a beautiful cello. Unfortunately, his tendency to wander

puts both Ayers and the cello in danger, so Lopez talked him if he wanted a cello that

must have come to LAMP community (a place of homeless people). The next day,

Nathaniel accepted the Lopez’s enticement and he was seen playing a cello for the

homeless in LAMP.

Lopez tried to get a doctor to help Nathaniel. He also tried to talk him to live

in an apartment, but Nathaniel refused. One day, Lopez invited him to view a

rehearsal concert. After seeing a reaction to music played in a concert hall, Lopez

persuaded another friend, Graham Claydon, a cellist, to rehabilitate Nathaniel through

music. The lessons go well, Nathaniel was enjoy and interested in the cello lesson.

Suddenly, Nathaniel was angry when Claydon talked about God. He said that Lopez

was his God.

Lopez’s article that was about Nathaniel become so famous, Nathaniel was

gave the chance to perform a cello. Sadly, he loses his temper when other sound

commented in his mind. He attacked Claydon and leaves the hall. That incident

convinced Lopez’s doctor friend to get Ayers some help. But when Nathaniel knew

that he was diagnosed as schizophrenic, he threw Lopez out of his apartment and

threatened to kill him.

While speaking with Mary, Lopez realized that not only had he changed

Nathaniel’s life, but also Nathaniel had changed him. Determined to make amends,

Lopez brought Nathaniel’s sister to L.A. for a visit. Later, while all watch an

orchestra, Lopez thought how beneficial their friendship had been. Nathaniel still

heard voices, but at least he no longer lived on the streets. In addition, Lopez has

helped Nathaniel’s relationship with his own family.

1 First time Lopez met

Nathaniel in the park

near Beethoven statue.

Lopez asked him that he

only got two strings

while Nathaniel was

playing a violin.

Lopez: You only got two strings.

Nathaniel: All I want to do is play

music, and here's the problem that

I'm having right here. This one's

gone, this one's gone, this little one's

out of commission. But you get that

in Cleveland public schools. A lot of

military statues in Cleveland. A very

military-oriented city…

he came from military or

no. Nathaniel answered

his question, but his

answered slipped off the

track or unrelated

answered. Lopez was

very curious about

Nathaniel because he

thought that a talent

musician had mental

illness.

Lopez: Is that where you're from?

Nathaniel: …You're not gonna get

musicians on parade there. You got

Severance Hall there. You have The

Music Settlement. Ohio State

University. Whereas in Los Angeles,

you have Los Angeles PD, you have

LA Times, you have Los Angeles

Lakers. Those are armies, too.

Military regimentation,

experimentation, Roman gable,

Roman Catholicism, Colonel

Sanders, but this guy right here

is...the quarterback with the

orchestra. Now the cello could back

this guy with the same moves, but the

cello can't be concert master. No. He

prefer Los Angeles to Beethoven

City, because it never rains in

Southern California, and if it does,

all I have to do is just go in the

Nathaniel, he decided to

when Nathaniel asked

about idea. Suddenly, He

told what he felt, but he

used with the same word

in his process speaking.

Lopez: No.

Nathaniel: Maybe they dropped it off

late at night. Cause it's just

astonishing to sit here for hours and

just... Just gaze at it. It... It just blows

Beethoven statue while

he was speaking about

his experience.

Unconsciously, his

speech involved

Beethoven as the subject.

Lopez: No idea.

Nathaniel: …It really blows me away

was the leader of Los Angeles.

6 Lopez saw Nathaniel in

the tunnel when he was

driving a car. And then,

he decided to meet

Nathaniel for an

interview.

Lopez: Hey, Nathaniel.

Nathaniel: I've been searching for

Mr. Beethoven, but he's slipping

away like a dream. I'm trying to get

back into shape, but I don't have any

sheet music. Beethoven's String

7 Lopez met Nathaniel

accidentally when he

drove his car while the

playing his violin at the

sidewalk of a tunnel.

Lopez was very surprised

and happy to meet

Nathaniel again because

he had been looking for

Nathaniel at the same

place as before (in front

of Beethoven statue), but

he did not find Nathaniel

there. He interviewed

him to get some

information. Lopez

wanted him as subject in

his column.

Lopez: I noticed that you've moved.

Nathaniel: Well, it's beautiful here,

because you can play music and

have pigeons clapping as they take

off, and right there is The Los

Angeles Times Building…

Lopez: Right, that's where I work. (It

is ignore)

Nathaniel: …Mr. Steve Lopez, staff

writer. New York, Cleveland, it

doesn't matter. All I have to do is

look up at that building and I know

exactly where I am…

Lopez: I was thinking about... (It is

Nathaniel: …I'm in Los Angeles, Los

Angeles, California, Los Angeles

Lakers…

Lopez: ...writing about you for the

And I wanna write a story about you.

A column about how a guy like you

Lopez: Anyone I could contact?

Family?

Nathaniel: Family? Miss Floria

Beauty is art. Music is beauty. I don't

do hair. I do my own hair, but

obviously, my mom does everybody's

explained and asked

Nathaniel to go to LAMP

community. In there, he

would get the treatment

him to playing the cello

for a few minute. When

Nathaniel opened the

cello case, he felt

surprise. He said

something to describe the

beautiful cello.

Nathaniel: Laying in there like a pig

in a blanket. Only... Only the greats.

Really, only the greats. Yo-Yo Ma,

Jacqueline du Pré, and the coolest

cucumber of them all is Janos

Starker. Gotta put rosin on your

bow. It's just like feeding a parakeet.

A bow needs rosin just like a police

14 After Nathaniel played

the cello, Lopez asked

him again to go to the

LAMP, but he could not

do it. Lopez did not give

a cello for him. It made

the cello would be ruined

if it was handled by

Lopez.

Nathaniel: No, no, no. You'll break

the bridge. You'll put water in it,

you'll drown her…

Lopez: That's what I'll do?

Nathaniel: …It will be ruined…

Lopez: Why would I damage it? I

gave you the damn thing.

Nathaniel: …It won't play right ever,

15 Lopez was worried about

Nathaniel after he saw

someone was overdose in

the LAMP.

Spontaneously, he

decided to find

Nathaniel. In a few

minutes, he met

Nathaniel and he decided

to spend the night with

him. Nathaniel explained

his vision. Lopez listened

and recorded what

Nathaniel said.

Nathaniel: You know, Mr. Lopez, my

vision... I hate to admit it, but I'm

gonna have to be like Beethoven.

Just do what he did and just die. My

vision is not far-off stuff, just

basically getting across the street

safely. Honor thy father and mother,

and then, hopefully, the music will

take care of itself. That's really all

you can do. I mean, when you think

about it, there's not much that you

can do other than that.

16 After Nathaniel

explained his vision, he

asked Lopez about the

writers. Lopez answered

Nathaniel’s question, and

then Nathaniel continued

to tell about musician.

Nathaniel: Do you think of writers

the way I think about musicians?

Lopez: I write for a living, and it's

not like it used to be.

Nathaniel: I love thinking about

musicians. I imagine Beethoven and

Mozart in that window where the

light is, and they just hunger and

they thirst like we do. It's angelic. I

believe these children of God are

gonna be okay tonight. They're

gonna sleep and dream as humans

17 One day, Lopez gave a

was invited to view a

rehearsal concert in

Disney-Hall. Nathaniel

so excited heard it.

Nathaniel: Well, what's the date

today?

Lopez: No, the third Symphony.

Nathaniel: I'll cause a scene. I don't

Unfortunately, Nathaniel

refused it, he thought that

the street was his home.

Lopez: I know. I know. The

Nathaniel: I don't have an apartment.

I don't wanna be in an apartment. I

Nathaniel: Mrs. Floria Ayers, Miss

Jennifer Ayers. And then there was

Mr. Nathaniel Anthony Ayers Sr. He

was a big man. He had big hands. I

have very small hands. Fit around a

Lopez wanted change his

mind to insist him to stay

told him that the

apartment was the safe

place for him. He cleaned

a left butt on the room

because he knew that

Nathaniel would not be

interested in that. When

Nathaniel entered the

room, he found the dead

fly. It made Nathaniel

afraid that he would be

like a dead fly if he

stayed in the apartment.

Lopez: Nathaniel, the door locks. A

fly only lives 12 days.

Nathaniel: A fly only lives 12 days.

What if in 12 days, someone walks

through that door and murders me?

And I don't care about this Claydon

thing, either. Walt Disney Hall.

Disney Duck doesn't make a

difference. I don't need any of that. If

I'm gonna take a lesson, I should

take the lesson in the tunnel where I

can hear the city sounds and not be

locked off from life, locked off from

the world. In the tunnel I can hear

the music the way it's supposed to be

played. Not in this place, there's no

Claydon: Nothing pains God more

than when we squander his blessings.

You owe it to him to care for this...

Nathaniel: I don't owe God. Mr.
