Soul Jazz Records presents Sound + Image: Music in Film
Set in the jazzy, beatnik underground of 1950s New York, John Cassavetes, first film features a wild score by Charles Mingus, improvised performances, a gritty naturalisim and is now widely considered to be a landmark in independent filmmaking.
A black woman begins an affair with a white man, creating family and racial tension – a practically taboo and groundbreaking subject in pre-civil rights era America and American cinema.
-------------------------------------------------------
Soul Jazz Records curates this season of music-related films – from Motown and Civil Rights Jazz to Reggae, Brazilian Bossa Nova, Jean-Luc Godard's groundbreaking Rolling Stones documentary and more. All of these films rely heavily on the relationship between music, film, politics and society. More importantly - they're all wicked!
Soul Jazz Records' founder Stuart Baker will introduce each of the films and Soul Jazz Records’ Soundsystem DJ’s in the bar before and after each screening!
