All Danes play dixie, 25 April 2002
10/10
Author: Bluesman from Long Island from Stockholm, Sweden

A drama/comedy about a Swedish danceband in the late 50's. The band gets a new member (a jazz saxophone player) who inspires some of the other band members to go in a more jazzy direction. Not taken to kindly by the leader, Sven Klang. Very funny but also with a deeper side. Some sources state that the main character in based on the Swedish baritone player Lars Gullin. This in not true, but the film coincides in many places with Gullins life. The film features some excellent altosaxaphone playing by Christer Boustedt. If your interested in music in general or jazz in particular, then this is definitely the film to see.
