Jamie Foxx won an Oscar for his portrayal of soul singer Ray Charles, which begins with Ray's (C.J. Sanders) early life in Georgia when he went blind at age seven, but his mother encouraged him to go on with his life and develop his talent. He becomes a successful musician and rises in the music world. But, his weakness for women and drugs intervenes–until Ray rises above his personal demons and finds his place as a beloved performer. The film received one other Academy Award and was nominated for four others, including Best Picture and Director.
