Miles Davis: Birth Of The Cool Documentary Lands GRAMMY Nomination For ‘Best Music Film’

“Directed by the gifted Stanley Nelson…It’s a tantalizing portrait: rich, probing, mournful, romantic, triumphant, tragic, exhilarating and blisteringly honest” – Variety

MILES DAVIS: BIRTH OF THE COOL, directed by Stanley Nelson, tells the virtually untold story of the life and career of musical giant and cultural icon Miles Davis, a true visionary, innovator and originator who defied categorization and embodied the word cool. The film, which premiered at Sundance Film Festival this year, reveals the man behind the horn, featuring never-before-seen archival footage and studio outtakes.

Comments Miles Davis Estate: “We are excited about the Grammy nomination for Birth Of The Cool. Bravo to director Stanley Nelson and his artistic vision in bringing this authentic documentary to life. We extend our gratitude to the entire team who worked tirelessly to bring an accurate portrayal of the life and legacy of music icon Miles Davis.”

The 62nd GRAMMY Awards will be held on Jan. 26, 2020 in Los Angeles.
