Forest Whitaker gives an electrifying performance — which won him the Best Actor prize at the Cannes Film Festival — as legendary jazz musician and saxophonist Charlie Parker, better known by his nickname “Bird.” This impressionistic film captures the intensity of Parker’s life by jumping back and forth in time, chronicling his love affairs, his tempestuous marriage to Chan Parker (Diane Venora), his battles with drug addiction, and his musical genius that led him to develop the fast-paced style of bebop. Directed by longtime jazz lover Clint Eastwood, who became a fan of Parker’s when he saw him perform live in the 1940s.
