Bird: Review

BIRD
starstarstarstar
People who weren't paying attention to Clint Eastwood's impressive directorial output over the years were probably surprised to find that he directed one of the finest American films of 1988. It's a magnificent tribute to the life and genius of jazz great Charlie Parker, affectingly played by Forest Whitaker. Eastwood arranges the film as a collage of passages from Parker's remarkable life, from his childhood in Kansas City to his tragic death at the age of 34. Read the complete review for Bird
