Review

Hozer and Raymont’s portrait of the mysterious, handsome Canadian pianist, known for his contrapuntal mastery and interpretations of Bach, includes some of his finest recordings and lots of engrossing archival footage. Music fans should go for it, but it’s also a strong example of cinematic storytelling that doesn’t rely on its rich subject matter to do all the work.
