If you loved Jersey Boys, try Bird
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Clint Eastwood, and they sit in Drama / Music territory. If that's the register that drew you to Jersey Boys, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Bird is
Bird meets Miles without the bebop. A saxophone prodigy lands in 1940s New York playing like lightning in a bottle. His fall into addiction fractures what’s left of his genius and the people who bet on it. Eastwood’s trumpet carries the wreckage.
