Rambling Thoughts. Spoilers.
Wow it looks like a real movie.
There is proper lighting and cinematography. Wow.
I hate how he's walking through this field.
Amira Vann is a performer.
Should've killed her grandaddy.
Too much narration.
These letters a little too detailed. Show don't tell.
I'm gon be honest, Tyler is the last person on earth who should tackling race.
I know Buster don't think Willie Earl is his child. Sir your colorism and self hatred can't be that severe that you think Bayou is half white. Sir! Open your eyes. He called him HALF BREED! Bruh. Delusional men are pure comedy.
I like that he calls her Lil Anne
Bayou is not it. I just don't think he's worth all the drama. He is boring. He doesn't even write songs. For a movie called A Jazzmans Blues Bayou has no interest in music. He doesn't write songs/music or play an instrument. Paper Airplanes isn't even written by him. He doesn't even really take singing seriously its just something he does.
Ooh he on that stuff.
Bucket better watch who she put her hands on. We know your truth and the only ones who gone help you.
Bayou has no stage presence. I'm not braving the Chicago winters to see a ni**a standing still. Willie Earl on the other hand, stage presence but I hate him so I never want to see him win.
"We don't allow coloreds to sit at our table". Sir that is the kitchen table! That is for the servants to sit and prep it is not the dining room table.
Soon as her momma said that lie Leanne should've blew up their spot. "Okay mama. Okay. Well guess what, we are negroes."
They stopped the car cut it off slammed doors, threw up, swap stories get back in cut the car back on and not once does Willie Earl wake up. Don't do drugs kids.
They never call it heroin. Why? It can't possibly change the rating to call it by name over showing the needle in his arm.
Ira do know he talking to a black man in the Jim Crow Era South?
Ira telling Bayou his survival story to tell him to survive so you can help others.
Me: Ira save that story for someone else. Bayou ain't got that dog in him.
Citsy is great. She needs more story.
This needs a good editing. It needed another script edit. Its much too long and the timeline gets a little jumbled. After Leanne comes back. I have no idea how much time has passed we needed more time with them at 16 & 17. This is where their performances shine. Also we needed them sneaking around more after she returns to see that it wasn't just puppy love taken too seriously.
This heffa bes better hope that baby don't come out chocolate.
Everything happens to Bayou. He is never in charge of his own story. He is very hard to root for. And the one time he makes his own choice it's the dumbest decision ever.
The Debbie Allen did the choreography for this movie and we never get to see it shine.
What is the audience of the Royale? Why are these white folks coming to see what seems like an all or majority Black Revue?
Only nine months have passed since he left?
Did she come to Hattie Mae for comfort and familiarity or because she was scared that baby was gon come out dark.
You can't take your aunty some money to make sure she is able to live and feed herself? Ni**a kill yourself.
How you the headliner but your brother, high out of his mind has more stage presence than you?
Bayou joins the military but it has no effect on his character. It doesn't make him braver or stronger or more sensitive. He just joins and immediately gets out.
Ira wasn't on heroin? Then what the hell was wrong with him? Heat stroke?
I think he's getting darker. She says about a baby the color of alabaster.
Baby the color of fresh fallen snow in Alaska, freshly painted apartment walls, unseasoned mashed potatoes, the color of the crowd at a Train concert
His momma: is he getting darker?
Ira saw him perform and thought he was the star compared to Willie Earl? Absolutely not. Now if it was that he had that sweet, innocent charm that would stretch across to white markets I could believe it but it wasn't so it's unbelievable.
Look I'm all for resilience in the face of adversity but as Tyler Perry himself once said. If you can't get peace where you are, MOVE. Hattie pack your shit and go.
How you mad cause you let heroin get in the way of you auditioning?
Being a woman is dangerous business. This man would rather kill her than just admit she couldn't stand The South. Imagine if he found out she was Black? He'd of killed her and the baby. Imagine if that baby came out brown. They'd have burned the city down.
Her mom's crazy for bringing them back to the South. That's the one place where black folks are in abundance. Passing is easiest when you isolate. That's what's missing from this story. The husband and sheriff are never suspicious.
This movie is too long to cut that out. We should've seen more of her life with her husband and bonding with Citsy.
So she's a quarter or a half? What is her mama?
Bayou is a fool. Not a fool, a damn fool. Why the hell would you go back to Georgia?
Willie Earl ain't shit.
Yeah, Bayou is not worth all this. Neither is Leanne.
There should've been more cuts to the eighties.
See you gotta be careful who you have ya kids around. How you 50-75% percent Negro and racist.
Tyler really put effort into this movie. The sets fell and look real.
Someone said Leanne aged like a yt woman and said that was her punishment? Y'all!!! I laughed.
Did Hattie give him the letters because he's her grand baby and she's tired of his racist bullshit or because she was serious about the investigation?
I did not need the nurse pointing out who he was.
The credit version of Paper Airplanes is really beautiful.

I gave up watching Tyler Perry productions years ago, but A Jazzman's Blues looks really interesting. I'll watch as much as I can tolerate and hopefully it'll be worth it.

Las raíces de la música moderna (parte I)
Las raíces de la música moderna (parte I)
“agarrar una escala y hacerla gemir”
Por supuesto las esotéricas y académicas exploraciones de vanguardistas como Anthony Braxton o Cecil Taylor puede que estén ,al menos aparentemente,a años luz de las innovaciones tempranas de Louis Amstrong o Sidney Bechet. Sin embargo en su esencia ambos enfoques divergentes están imbuidos por el espíritu de la creatividad espontánea,

A Character Analysis of A Jazzman’s Blues
A Character Analysis of A Jazzman’s Blues
A Jazzman’s Blues is a tragedy of the Deep South, between two souls trapped in an impossible situation who just want to be together.
Bayou, the main protagonist, is an ISFJ caught between what he knows to be prudent (to be aware of the risks involved in being a young black man in the south during the 1950s) and the desires of his heart. He meets and falls in love with Leanne, a neighbor girl,…

First Look: 'A JAZZMAN'S BLUES,' written, directed, and produced by Tyler Perry.
Tyler Perry’s latest — though the screenplay is the first one he ever wrote — stars Joshua Boone, Solea Pfeiffer, Amirah Vann, Austin Scott, and Ryan Eggold in a story of forbidden love and family secrets that reaches from the 1940s to the 1980s.
Mod Note: I’m really eager to see what a Tyler Perry period film looks like. Also I love the amazingly talented Solea Pfeiffer.

The Jazzman's Blues Review
The Jazzman’s Blues Review
Tyler Perry isn’t known for period-piece films. He’s pretty much known as Madea, his long-running comedy character. He’s garnered a lot of fan support which allowed him to create his own studio in Atlanta. He has written, directed, and produced his fair share of romantic dramas in and around the Atlanta area. Which are vastly different from his Madea films. The Jazzman’s Blues is much different…
