On a snowy night in February 1972, legendary jazz trumpeter Lee Morgan was shot dead by his common-law wife, Helen, during a gig at a club in New York City. The murder sent shockwaves through the jazz community. I CALLED HIM MORGAN is an award-winning film about jazz, love and America. It has sold out screenings in NYC, LA, San Francisco--and has been held over for up to 4 weeks in selected cinemas.
