Criterion Collection - Thelonious Monk Straight No Chaser - Blu-ray

One of jazz's greatest musicians, Thelonious Monk is recognized as one of the fathers of bebop.

Produced by Clint Eastwood. 90 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English (SDH); featurettes; theatrical trailer.
