If you loved Swing Kids, try Sweet and Lowdown
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
Theysit in Drama / Music territory. If that's the register that drew you to Swing Kids, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Sweet and Lowdown is
Woody Allen directs Sean Penn to act like a jazz legend. A self-proclaimed, second-best guitarist negotiates 1930s life, complete with molls and mute women. It's a period film that asks: what if Woody was a supremely talented, but troubled, jazzman?
