1986, Movie, R, 133 mins

This might easily be called the best jazz film ever made, and not only because the competition is so weak. The film's quality lies not just in its vivid portrayal of the bebop milieu, but also in its sensitive examination of an artist compelled to create on a nightly basis, despite personal consequences. Jazz great Dexter Gordon stars as Dale Turner, a character who is hailed as "the greatest tenor saxophone player in the world," and loosely based on Gordon himself.
