SYLVIE’S LOVE

Director: Eugene Ashe
Starring: Tessa Thompson, Nnamdi Asomugha, Jemima Kirke, Aja Naomi King, Lance Reddick, Eva Longoria, Wendy McLendon-Covey Ryan Michelle Bathe

A timeless love story with a jazz backdrop lies at the heart of the new film Sylvie’s Love. It’s the late 1950s in New York City when Robert, a jazz saxophonist spots Sylvie behind the counter of a record store. Our central couple is played by Nnamdi Asomugha and Tessa Thompson. His musical expertise leads him to getting a job laying room for them to fall in love. With this being a love story, there must be a catch as Sylvie is engaged to man off at war and Robert’s band ends up touring across the country. Now streaming on Amazon Prime.
