ROUND MIDNIGHT DVD

Movie Description:
Inside the Blue Nole nightclub one night in 1959 Paris, anaged, ailing jazzman coaxes an eloquent wail from his tenor sax. Outside, a youngParisian too broke to buy a glass of wine strains to hear those notes. Soon they will form a friendship that sparks a finalburst of genius in thefading musician. ROUND MIDNIGHT, set to Herbie Hancock`s superb Academy Award-winning Best Original Score, is an elegant ode to bebop-thetechnically demanding jazz that blossomed during the postwar era-and to the expatriate black Americans who created, nurtured and live it.
