Little Satchmo Fall 2022 New Jersey Film Festival Video Q+A

By Al Nigrin

originally published: 09/13/2022 

Here is the  Little Satchmo Fall 2022 New Jersey Film Festival Q+A with Director John Alexander and Festival Director Al Nigrin.

Little Satchmo – John Alexander (Clearwater, Florida)

To the world, Louis Armstrong is iconic — a symbol of musical genius, unparalleled success, and unassailable character. To Sharon, he was simply Dad. Armstrong’s wholesome, non-threatening image preserved his singular career as a black performer with unfettered access to a white man's world. Yet he was more than a caricature; he had desires, he had longings, and in private, he held tightly to the things he loved. Perhaps closest to his heart was a child whom he hid from the world: a daughter sworn to a life of secrecy until now. 2021; 61 min.

Little Satchmo screens at the Fall 2022 New Jersey Film Festival on Sunday, September 18th.

The film will be Online for 24 Hours and In-Person at 7PM in Voorhees Hall #105/Rutgers University, 71 Hamilton Street, New Brunswick, New Jersey.

Sharon Preston-Folta will be present at the In-Person screening to do a Q+A after the showing.
