Birth of the blues


Birth of the blues is a musical movie that can show the musical style of American. This movie can make me to know about the old song. I think it is very unique. Singers can sing a song without preparation in advance. They can tell their feeling by using song as a medium. That was very fansinating. Also, I have a chance to know mor about the musical band of American. They are unity. I think they have a good team work. They can mix all instument perfectly.

In this movie, I feel a little bit boring as it is black and white. Jeff grows up near Basin street in New Orelens, playing hes calrmet with the dock worker. He puts together band, the Basin street hot shots. At first, people didn't accept their musical style since they are old fashion and they thind that Jeff music is darkie. But when Betty join their band as a singer, people has changed their mind. They love it. The blue music is very famous. Even though, the band have to faced with serious problem. But they can solve it as Jeff is very smart. He has s good idea about how to solve and how to escape. I like it.

However, this movie would be better if it is not black and white. I think Birth of the blues can clearly show the uniqueness of American music. It is very useful to study about American culture from this movie.

Your blogging of this movie was very good. You understand how to blog the movies.

Of course it was B/W. It is an ancient movie. Seems it really did not matter as you wrote a good blog.

Keep it up.
