Dudley Murphy’s short preserves an early screen performance by Duke Ellington and his orchestra while integrating music, décor, movement, and tragedy. Its stylisation gives Black modernist performance unusual visual and sonic space.
如何轻松入门
The film is compact and emotionally direct. Listen to how Ellington’s music changes function—from work, to performance, to an expression of grief that the dialogue cannot contain.
