UK
Television Documentary
Writer/Director/Cinematographer/Narrator: Hannah Rothschild
Cast: Helen Mirren
Featuring: Thelonious Monk Jr., Quincy Jones, Lord Rothschild, Chico Hamilton, Roy Haynes, Sonny Rollins

Filled with drugs, cats, breakdowns, and great music, Hannah Rothschild presents a loving if rather uncritical portrait of the unlikely 28-years-long friendship between her great aunt, Panonnica Rothschild, a blue-blooded white English woman, and Jazz Pianist Thelonious Monk, a black American from a poor background.
