"Calle 54" is an excellent example of how a music documentary should be made: emphasis on the music and very little narration. The focus is on the musicians and their music. From the beginning of the film, where we listen to the inimitable Paquito D'Rivera to the touching duet between Bebo and Chucho Valdes at the end, Fernando Trueba allows us to experience the virtuosity of these excellent musicians unobstructed by over-the-top narration. My personal favorite scenes were the segments on Eliane Elias and Michel Camilo. What great musicians! You can clearly see that they enjoy what they do, and their passion and enthusiasm for their music is contagious! You would have to be a rock not to find yourself tapping your foot to the music.

If this film does not serve to introduce newcomers to the wonder of latin jazz, then I don't know what will. December 17, 2007

This is just the best compilation of latin stars performing some of the most representative mainstreams in current latin jazz music. The film is deep, hot, profoundly touching and absolutely powerful. May 17, 2007
