Rating: - young man with a horn
Though Harry james sound might be different from that of Beiderbeckes's I've enjoyed his brilliant sound. Moreover I could meet Charmichael,
Doris day ,Bacall and looks very young Kirk douglas . They are gorgeous!!
Rating:  - early dramatic Day
Allegedly based on the early life of jazzman Bix Beiderbecke, YOUNG MAN WITH A HORN is mainly notable for featuring an early dramatic performance from Doris Day, playing one third of a stormy love triangle.

Rating:  - Kirk Douglas, Film, GREAT!!!
Young Man with a Horn is a great film with a great performance by Kirk Douglas. He is brilliant. You can see why he became a star. Trailing shortly behind him are Doris Day & Lauren BaCall. This film also gives you a chance to see something of the NY Club nightlife in the 40s and 50s. Just remember its of the film noir period, has that dark something about it, and don't watch when you are depressed!
Rating: - Great Hokum
Pure hokum - corny, unintentionally funny dialogue - dumb plot - BUT great music and great picture, love it!
Rating: - Young man with a cliche
Yeah, it's pretty corny and about as cliche-ridden as they come, but the music is there and that's a very good thing. Kirk Douglas plays a young jazz trumpeter, based very loosly on the life of '20s cornetist and legend Bix Beiderbecke - a man in love with nothing but his horn (and booze) - until Doris Day turns him around. Lauren Bacall plays a vampire-type woman who takes out her own self-loathing on the world (and Douglas), but she does the only credible acting in the movie.
