Über dieses Produkt

Product Information

The musical biopic of jazz great Red Nichols features a healthy dose of melodrama along with the melodies. As the famed Dixieland cornetist, he runs into opposition to his sound, but breaks through to success. He marries a warm, patient woman (Bel Geddes) and even finds time to raise a family. Then tragedy strikes when their daughter contracts polio. The jazzman puts down his horn to stand by her. Among the musical cameos is a hot turn by Armstrong in a duet with Kaye.

  • Great movie with peppy music and charming charactors

    Good old time movie with Louis Armstrong looking pretty young and Danny Kaye seeming to play a pretty swinging trumpet. This was a favorite movie of my two boys who both played the trumpet through their school years. It also has a strong moral point when Kaye is forced to support his ailing polio stricken daughter by doing grunt labor rather than leading his new five pennies band.

  • Corny But Charming

    "The Five Pennies" is a sanitized telling of the story of Red Nichols. This corny film is full of cliches and predictable turns of plot, yet so charming and engaging that all is forgiven. Danny Kaye demonstrates his ability as a serious actor (with a smattering of his characteristic comedic shtick) and talent as a singer. This is a thoroughly enjoyable movie - but only if you're able to suspend judgment and disbelief of all the hokey 1950s- style conventions used.

  • "My Cousin Loves It"

    It was a Birthday gift to my closest Cousin. I had always loved the movie as i had seen it over and over again. My Cousin didn't believe me when i had told him that Danny Kaye and others were excellent in the film. HE LOVES IT NOW THOUGH!!

  • Enjoyable and the DVD was brand new.

    A great movie with all the best in big band music, Louis Armstrong and Danny Kaye as Red Nichols. Thoroughly enjoyable if you like old movies that are musicals in a sense. Absolutely worth what I paid!!
