| Jazz, love, growing up and Turrett's mix quite well.
Set against a jazz background in New York City, this is one of those wonderful little films that make chasing films in the video store or on cable worth the effort. The principles are all excellent and the supporting cast is superb. And it has it all; humour, pathos, love, drama, even belly laughs. There is a feeling for music, jazz and individuals that is reminiscent of some 80's films out of Canada.
