"Artistically unpredictable and personally mercurial, jazz genius and American icon&amp;#xA0;Miles Davis lived an impossible-to-pin-down life. For years, it seemed the same was true about Miles Ahead, Don Cheadle&amp;apos;s long-in-the-works biopic. Now though, the project is locking into a steady groove. Cheadle, who will direct the film, and his collaborators, which include Davis&amp;apos; nephew Vince Wilburn and musical giant Herbie Hancock, recently launched an Indiegogo campaign to help raise funding for the effort.\r\nReality Bites: The 25 Best and Worst Biopics\r\nMiles Ahead, says Cheadle, will be &amp;quot;an excavation more than checking off all the benchmarks of Miles&amp;apos; life. I&amp;apos;m less interested in making a traditional biopic than in making a movie that Miles would&amp;apos;ve wanted to star in and that&amp;apos;s true to the spirit of his music.&amp;quot;\r\nSo in that spirit, Cheadle spoke with us about five Davis albums as well as his thoughts about the man&amp;apos;s brilliant career and often-turbulent life.&amp;#xA0;By David Marchese"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
