Too Late Blues

(1961)Directed by John Cassavetes103 minDrama, Music
“The Bold Story Of A Man Caught Between Two Strange Loves!”

John "Ghost" Wakefield (Bobby Darin) leads a jazz band and would rather play his blues in the park to the birds than bend his music to what pays. His drifting from one gig to the next brings him to Jess Polanski (Stella Stevens), a would-be singer, and a violent brawl puts his sense of himself in doubt. John Cassavetes writes about a man who treats keeping his principles as the one thing worth holding onto.
