It's one of those movies that, thank god it's a short. It's only around for 5 minutes and it treats you to good music and some interesting camera angles. I feel like for every minute or two you add onto it, it'd lose a couple points. But that's fine, because the director knew enough to not make it very long... so as it stands now, it's very good, almost great.

TCM totally ripped this off for their bumpers.

A jazz music video, essentially. It's nice music and nicely shot, but I'm not a big fan of the color scheme. It's too warm and coppery for me to fully enjoy it.
