Toni Morrison Morrison Toni

In the same manner, jazz music can be different in its moods, structure, and sounding. Moreover, it seems that the most important idea of jazz is to surprise listeners, to exceed their expectations, to be experimental, rhythmic and harmonic. Morrison, having a very good feeling for the requirements jazz poses on all its imitators, tries to reach the same effect by unusual, non-standar...

The characters in the movie are so fully thought out that almost all rock and roll bands that became popular prior to and half a decade later than the release of the movie fit the stereotypes presented by this fictitious band that ended up being more real than any other legitimate bands of the time. The days of disco had long faded by the 1984 re...
