An enjoyable and inventive short film, 7 March 2000
5/10
Author: Frank Robinson, Jr. from Washington, DC

This short is primarily a showcase for a young Louis Armstrong. The story line is very simple and has its witty moments and for its length is rather inventive. A prime example showing that you can tell a story with a beginning, middle and an end and don't need four hours of film to do so.
