I saw Akeelah and the Bee over the weekend. Cute movie. Predictable, but a good story.

During the scene where Akeelah is in Morpheus's Dr. Larabee's office you can see two Blue Note albums framed and hanging on the wall.

My parents watch that Two & A Half Men show (pretty funny). In passing I noticed this poster on the wall of their set last night:

Dr. Larabee likes Hub-Tones?

Now if he had framed say, Soul Station and Davis Cup I could really respect the dude...

:)

Actually, we almost saw this last night, but it wasn't playing in the proverbial theater near us. We saw Flight 93 instead. Not as uplifting, I'll bet.

My favorite jazz album cover in a movie is in "The Talented Mr. Ripley." Unlike the in novel where the character is a talentless painter, Dickie Greenleaf (Jude Law) is a jazz fan/saxophone player. When Tom Ripley (Matt Damon) gets close to Dickie, he starts listening to jazz as well. At one point, in his apartement, we see a Miles Davis album cover. This one, to be exact:

Did I mention that the movie is set in the late 50s?

The cover (by David Stone Martin) to Bud Powell 'Jazz Giant' vinyl is very visible in Woody Allen's 'Anything Else' when Jason Biggs and Christina Ricci search for vinyls in a NY record shop.
