Great Jazz Music Scene


This is not a spoiler warning because it takes place in the middle of the movie and has no effect on the overall plot. Sidney Portier and Paul Newman are musicians that make a living playing with a band in a Paris night jazz club. Louise Armstrong plays a famous musician visiting Paris for a concert. He and Newman are friends however and as promised Armstrong "invades" a gig of Newman and Portier. It is a real treat for us. One can sense the great enjoyment that Armstrong, Newman and Portier (as well as the rest of the cast in this scene) had in performing this scene. A great scene. Enjoy!
