family for entrusting Don Cheadle with their loved one&#8217;s story. \u00a0Although one comment by Don Cheadle before the movie started put everyone on notice&#8230; \u00a0Roughly paraphrased, MILES AHEAD is not a bio-pic. \u00a0After seeing the movie, you quickly realize that you did not see a traditional bio-pic covering the life an artist, but a mere snapshot in time. \u00a0MILES AHEAD covers a 5-year period of time in Miles Davis&#8217; life in which he hit a rut and was not creating any music. \u00a0It could have been a drug phase in which he was unproductive, or many of life&#8217;s obstacles were weighing heavily on his shoulders, or maybe all of the above.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, MILES AHEAD does a great job of delving into the mind of Miles Davis as wonderfully portrayed by Don Cheadle. \u00a0Ewan McGregor who plays David Brill, an independent journalist hoping that an interview with Miles Davis will get him published in Rolling Stones Magazine also does a great job and plays a central role in the story. \u00a0The lovely Emayatzy Corinealdi plays Frances Taylor, the love interest and wife of Miles Davis.<\/p>\n<p>Through a spirited effort to get Miles Davis to release his latest master recordings, David Brill and Miles Davis embark on an adventure that ultimately gets Miles Davis back on track to what he did best and that is perform and create the passionate signature music he is known for.<\/p>\n<p>MILES AHEAD is a story that needed to be told about this legendary artist while leaving the door open for future bio-pics. \u00a0There is no way you can truly capture the life of an extraordinary artist in a 90 minute movie and by not trying to do so, Don Cheadle paid the ultimate homage and respect to Miles Davis.<\/p>\n<p>Buy or Rent by clicking on the poster below:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01F5LRUM4\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B01F5LRUM4&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=rogu00-20&amp;linkId=4773c9e5e256582404fce6e2cec15399\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ASIN=B01F5LRUM4&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;WS=1&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;tag=rogu00-20\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ROGUEFLIX\u00ae www.rogueflix.com by ROKVU\u00ae www.rokvu.com Before the screening of MILES AHEAD at the Sundance Film Festival, actor Don Cheadle took the stage to thank his cast, producers, co-writer, investors, and above all, Miles Davis&#8217;
