Director: Don Cheadle

A Miles Davis biopic that avoids easy notes. The cradle-to-the-grave biopic has become an increasingly tried Hollywood staple. So it's somewhat refreshing to see Don Cheadle make his directorial debut with what might be called an anti-bio – one that gives the much-deserved big-screen treatment to jazz legend Miles Davis. It's tempting to think this musical innovator would approve of the offbeat, semi- fictional approach taken in this account of a few days in his 'lost' years – the mid-'70s period when he disappeared from public view.
