| Jazz for aficionados Learsfool, unless the actor is "Dexter Gordon", I'm not interested, but apparently it's time for a change of subject.I don't think we've heard "Badal Roy". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjEQda_4QWMEnjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Has everyone seen "Round Midnight? I don't see any comments, and do you have the soundtrack? I saw a good movie about "Expats" (Paris Blues) that didn't have the high quality of jazz as "Round Midnight". I was just wondering, how do you grade a ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Actors don't create stories, it's not their job; that's for writers. Actors create believable characters.I never saw General Patton; consequently I have to take your word for whether or not George C. Scott did such a marvelous job as Patton; howe... | |
| Jazz for aficionados When in doubt, let Frogman figure it out. | |
| Jazz for aficionados As the decider in chief of this thread, it is my job to discern what is and "what is not". In regard to Jamie Foxx as Ray Charles, there were times when I thought he was Ray Charles, and that's what acting is all about; to make the audience belie... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, the people who fought the civil rights movement are unknown, old and tired, plus only younger people benefited who couldn't care less about those who didn't benefit.Presently everyone is for number one, and the only movement is straight down ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, since you seem to have a good idea of what a "jazz track" and movie should consist of; what's your favorite?Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados This is one of my favorite soundtracks, "Cat People"; it's a movie about people who turn into big black panthers who will eat you up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCIym5Ovu3Y&list=PL3YPwDXT3Pk34CpOnvEJcsQEfccEyt4onEnjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I was with Nina from the beginning of her musical career, and I watched her grow as a person when she became deeply involved in civil rights. Her "real" life was certainly worth a movie, but from what I can gather, this current movie is not ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, click on "Cabin in The Sky" - "Jim Henry's Paradise" | |
| Jazz for aficionados Although they "never" succeed, I applaud their valiant efforts. Nina Simone is the subject of a movie (I happen to be istening to her at the moment) that I'm looking forward to seeing. You would be astounded at how interesting a jazz musician's l... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, acting-imitating, Jamie Fox-Ray Charles, is in a "phase-loc-loop" going nowhere fast. I suggest you pick out a jazz move for us to look at and review; you have a long list to choose from.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I had forgotten about that one; from an acting point of view, I don't think it will ever be beat. Like you said "Jamie Foxx's portrayal of "Ray" is incredible". That movie was fantastic from beginning to end; Ray Charles, like all other... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, according to "Aficionados", Dexter Gordon puts this movies over the top by simply being himself, without acting; in addition to a fantastic jazz track that was sufficient for two records, plus the musicians were the greatest.While a top a... | |
| Jazz for aficionados The greatest jazz movie that's ever been made is "Round Midnight", starring "Dexter Gordon". Not only is this the greatest jazz movie that's ever been made, it's probably the greatest jazz movie that ever will be made, along with the greatest sou... |
