Mark said: I'm not positive, but wasn't Young Man with a Horn
loosely based on Bix Beiderbecke? There was a movie made with
Kirk Douglas and Lauren Bacall.
I've seen the movie, though I haven't read the book that
miker mentioned. I was very young when I saw the movie, but I
think it might qualify as noir. I do remember that it's the
first movie I ever where I thought the people who made it
copped out and tacked on a brief "happy ending" scene that
didn't fit at all with the rest of what I'd seen.
