Review of 'Round Midnight (1986) by Keith E — 22 Sep 2010
Dexter Gordon's voice plays the same notes as the music in this film. As with all great musicians, the notes that come from within are the same as the feelings from within. Musicians who use breath to play their instruments - those who play the various horns - arrive sooner or later at a point where they play and speak in the same voice.
Gordon makes it easy to hear that; the music that comes from his saxophone is sad and tender, and so are his words. - Roger Ebert.
