A Jazzman’s Blues

I have seen a number of Tyler Perry’s movies and they are usually entertaining, but a little over the top, even the dramas. However, his newest release on Netflix, “A Jazzman’s Blues” is his best film to date. It tells the story of a black singer from Georgia and his unrequited love. Newcomer Joshua Boone plays the Jazzman and he is quite a find. The rest of the cast is also excellent. The story is about a young man who loves a girl who passes for white. There are a number of twists and turns and the ending packs a wallop. As usual Perry includes characters that are really bad and ones that are virtuous. The music and dancing are outstanding. I loved this movie and recommend that anyone who likes a good story with good acting see it.
