Jazz Films at Guild Cinema

The 20th Annual New Mexico Jazz Festival steps outside its usual performance format for a film day at the Guild, pairing the 1981 avant-garde document Imagine the Sound with the John Coltrane biography Chasing Trane across three screenings. The Guild’s small room and good projection make this a better way to absorb both films than a laptop ever would, and the staggered schedule is designed so you can catch all three if you’re willing to commit the afternoon. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so confirm the festival’s current pricing there before you show up.
