About
Everybody Digs Bill Evans is a biographical drama film about the legendary jazz pianist and composer Bill Evans. Directed by Grant Gee and starring Anders Danielsen Lie, Bill Pullman and Oscar® nominee Laurie Metcalf, the film is written by Mark O'Halloran and based on Owen Martell's novel Intermission.
June 1961, NYC: Bill Evans (Danielsen Lie) has found his musical voice and created the perfect trio, including bass player Scott LaFaro (Will Sach), said to be his soulmate through music. A residency at New York's Village Vanguard culminates in the live taping of two of the greatest jazz records of all time in one night. Ten days later, LaFaro dies in a car crash. Numb with grief, Evans stops playing.
