The Five Pennies was a 1959 film starring Danny Kaye, which featured a cameo from Louis Armstrong. It received four Oscar nominations.

Louis Armstrong (1901-1971) was one of the early stars of jazz.

He began his career in New Orleans in the early 1900s, playing in drinking dens and riverboat saloons.

Over the course of his life he influenced several generations of jazz musicians, became a prominent voice in the civil rights movement and even starred in a series of movies.
