About the film:
(Bert Stern, US, 1959, 85 min, in English)
** Co-presented with Earshot Jazz! Their 2023 festival runs from Oct. 6 to Nov. 5 **
Filmed at the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival in Rhode Island and directed by world-renowned photographer Bert Stern, Jazz on a Summers Day features intimate performances by an all-star line-up of musical legends including Louis Armstrong, Thelonious Monk, Gerry Mulligan, Anita ODay, Chuck Berry, Dinah Washington, and closes with a beautiful rendition or The Lords Prayer by Mahalia Jackson at midnight to usher in Sunday morning.
The film has been beautifully and extensively restored in 4K from the best surviving vault elements by IndieCollect.
Several of the performances are among the treasures of filmed music; all of them, whatever their musical merit, are filmed with a rare artistry, a rare attention to making images of music that are themselves musical. Richard Brody, New Yorker

Accessibility
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at maria@nwfilmforum.org
