'Born to be Blue' or 'Miles Ahead' [TRAILERS] Which Jazz Legend Biopic Movie Should You See?
When it comes to biopic movies, the film industry has to deal with a number of different projects based on the same subject, but in 2016, we have a more unique issue: two separate films about two jazz icons.

This year, Don Cheadle is making his directorial debut in Miles Ahead, a biopic on Davis. Meanwhile, Ethan Hawke is portraying Baker in Born to Be Blue, which has a release date very close to Cheadle's project. The question is: which one are you willing to see in theaters?
