Description

Reinhardt, elegantly interpreted by Reda Kateb (A Prophet, Zero Dark Thirty), is the toast of 1943 Paris, thrilling audiences with his distinctive brand of “hot jazz” and charming his admirers including his muse played by Cécile de France (Hereafter, Chinese Puzzle). But even as the rise of Nazism forces Reinhardt — whose music is considered degenerate under the Third Reich — to make a daring escape from Paris, he refuses to be silenced as his music becomes a form of protest. Reda Kateb’s performance is simply impressive and will certainly please all fans of Django. A spirited biopic that will keep audiences on their tapping toes.

    Many people don’t know that Django Unchained is the sequel to this film. Glad they finally released this. Been waiting a while!

    4.35 stars. The story of Romas persecuted as bad as others of the genocide of the Third Reich finally gets its day in Cinema. And wrapped around the life and music of Django's life in this most treacherous time in Europe, we get history and scintillating music. It's a few beats below great, but very good and very entertaining. As his elegiac composition become a final piece, there is a sense of more could have been done with the story and the film. But, savor it for yourself. Good performances and a bit of a thriller as the nazis chase him through snow-filled forest and over mountains.

    Amazing story of this great artist of a singular style. The WWII background story gives it a thrilling ambiance as well.
