The Movies Meet Music film event returns to the JazzHall!

"Round Midnight" is one of the most impressive feature films ever made about jazz. In 1950s New York, saxophonist Dale Turner - played by none other than jazz legend Dexter Gordon - battles his way from one nightclub to the next, trying to make ends meet. To give his life and his music new impetus, he travels across the Atlantic to Paris in the hope of making his breakthrough there.
The legendary soundtrack by Herbie Hancock - who also plays a part in the film - won an Oscar and the lead actor Dexter Gordon was awarded an Emmy for his performance and nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role.

Film scholar Christoph Dobbitsch will host the evening and set the mood for the film in a short supporting program, which will also include musical contributions.
