5.0 out of 5 stars great jazz and even flamenco- why can't we get US format?
saw it in VHS. a must for all jazz fans of the scene in Paris in the 1950's. There is even flamenco music shown in the movie as the guitarist in Paul Newmsn's band plays some flamenco. the movie shows a flamenco guitar master wasted by drugs. Great movie. Paul and Sidney getting down with Bebop!

1.0 out of 5 stars For non-usa use
We purchased a CD of the Movie Paris Blues which is an old movie which starred Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward and Sydney Poitier. Unfortunately, we did not notice that the movie was of a non USA format and would not play on our machine. I can not review it because I can't view it. I'm just warning others to watch for the small print.

5.0 out of 5 stars A moody classic, August 26, 2009
This review is from: Paris Blues [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - Spain ] (DVD)
A great noir-ish, atmospheric movie and all that jazz. Sadly, not available in the USA. I'm hoping & waiting. Great cast, especially Satchmo. It could've been trite, but is done seriously...and on location. Paris is the real star here.
