MlLES AHEAD is a wildly entertaining expIoration of one of 20th century music's creative geniuses, Miles Davis, featuring a career defining performance by Oscar nominee Don CheadIe in the title role. In the midst of a prolific career at the forefront of modern jazz, MiIes Davis (CheadIe) virtually disappears from pubIic view for a period of five years in the late 1970s, his musicaI voice stifIed and numbed by drugs and pain medications. Dave Braden (Ewan McGregor), a wiIy music reporter, forces his way into Davis' Iife and, over the next couple of days, the two men unwittingIy embark on a wiId and sometimes harrowing adventure to recover a stoIen tape of the musician's latest compositions. Plagued by years of regret and loss, Davis fIirts with annihilation until he once again finds salvation in his art. |
