Director: Michael Mann
Co-stars: Tom Cruise, Jada Pinkett Smith

Jamie's character: Max, the cabbie. Foxx blended effortlessly into the persona of a taxi-driver whose car is hijacked by an assassin.

Foxx Quote: How do you like being a lawyer?

[Jada Pinkett Smith: What are you, psychic?]

"Little bit. There's the dark pin-stripe suit, elegant, not too flashy, that rules out advertising, plus a top-drawer briefcase that you live out of. And the purse. A Bottega. Anyway, a man gets in my cab with a sword, I figure he's a sushi chef. You: Clarence Darrow."

Always good to see a man who knows what he's talking about!

Foxx overshadowed Cruise in the film, and is up for Best Supporting Actor.
