About Blues Is My Middle Name
London 1961. Alex, a jazz musician, and Faith, a singer, share an uneasy life together. With the relationship on the rocks, Faith is willing to try to win back Alex by any means. Alas her attempts at making Alex jealous by leaving the club with a stranger backfire. Assuming that Faith has found a new beau Alex leaves their flat not knowing that Faith has been waiting for him.
Directed by Winta Yohannes, Blues Is My Middle Name leans on a strong ensemble — Tony Cealy, Ewen Cummins, Sean Francis — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1998.
