Overview

Inspired by the life of legendary jazz pianist Bud Powell, this is the Academy Award-winning story of an American expatriate musician who tries to make order of his life during the great jazz milieu of 1950s Paris. The New York Times commends "its tremendous depth of feeling and lovely, elegiac pace.... [This] is a glowing, masterly tribute."
