St. Louis Blues
(1958)
Will Handy grows up in Memphis with his
preacher father and his Aunt Hagar. His
father intends for him to use his musical
gifts only in church, but he can't stay
away from the music of the streets and
workers. After he writes a theme song
for a local politician, Gogo, a speakeasy
singer, convinces Will to be her
accompanist. Will is estranged from his
father for many years while he writes
and publishes many blues songs. At last
the family is reunited when Gogo brings
them to New York to see Will's music
played by a symphony orchestra.
