An exploration of the life and music of Miles Davis.
The Buzz:
Don Cheadle makes his directorial debut in this biopic about Miles
Davis, one of the more enigmatic cultural figures of the last century.
The film must have been a true labor of love for the acclaimed actor
because Cheadle helped pen the script in addition to portraying the
iconic trumpeter in the lead role. There have been plenty of movies in
recent months that have brought to life some of popular music's most
illustrious minds and personalities. But, perhaps because of the sizable
figure that Davis casts on the history of 20th century jazz in addition
to Cheadle's expanded role in developing the story, this film in
particular seems worthy of a particularly close look. - Bret
