It’s hard to believe this film was made in 1944. What a piece of work! So slickly done, it could have been made in 2004 (except for the opening credits and all).
This electrifying film was where “prominent jazz musicians of the 1940’s get together for a rare filming of a jam session”. It features Lester Young, Red Callender, Harry Edison, Marlowe Morris, Sid Catlett, Barney Kessel, Joe Jones, John Simmons, Illinois Jacquet, Marie Bryant, Archie Savage and Garland Finney, and was directed by Gjon Mili.
I wish there was some way of seeing this on the big screen…
