The Glenn Miller Story
The film revolves around the life story of the band's leader, Glenn Miller, from his beginnings until his death in 1944. The film shows the real look of this man when he lost the plane he was driving on the English Channel during World War II during that harsh period.

Featuring a towering performance from Jimmy Stewart as America's most popular band leader, Anthony Mann's intelligent if also sentimental film is one of the most enjoyable Hollywood biopics.

A strange look at the music business.

Unfortunately, while Jimmy Stewart provides yet another winning performance as the seminal big band leader, the film is an unsatisfying hybrid.

Miller's great music is THE thing in this romanticized bio of the band leader.

If you're a fan of the big band sound (which I'm not) you will probably like this pic much better than I did.
