In 'Round Midnight, real-life jazz legend Dexter Gordon brilliantly portrays the fictional tenor sax player Dale Turner, a musician slowly losing the battle with alcoholism, estranged from his family, and hanging on by a thread in the 1950's New York jazz world. Dale gets an offer to play in Paris, where, like many other black American musicians at the time, he enjoys a respect for his humanity that is not based upon the color of his skin. A Parisian man who is obsessed with Turner's music befriends him and attempts to save Turner from himself. Although for Dale the damage is already done, his poignant relationship with the man and his young daughter re-kindles his spirit and his music as the end draws near.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090557 FAS aims to bring nice releases to people looking to increase their movies count in archives
movies that otherwise would never make it there due to modern day proof rules
There are several reasons why proof is not always possible and
We feel today's rules might be overall too tight, even in the old tdx rules some understood
the importance of internals being with less limitations, leaving to ripper discretion
the pleasure to let new ideas arise in order to make the standard better
We therefore aim to ignore any nukes due to lack of proof by randomizing the group name
in order to achieve our goal, and, if anyone feel the same, feel free to use either
our template nfo and group name or make his own using the same idea, preing their releases
the same way we are doing it
That will only bring to all pure archivers more goodies in their collection
Note to nukers:
We don't plan to change the rules but we can ignore them! Who are we? .. We are random!
