Trivia
There was some speculation that Glenn Gould had Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism. This film doesn't address that issue as to mention it would have denied them access to the Gould estate and all its material.

Philosophically and emotively engaging

Attended this movie as part of the Honens Day at Studio Bell in Calgary. I did not know Glenn Gould and his part in music history prior to this. I was riveted from the brilliant imagery that started the setting to the final credits. This is easily the most engaging life documentary I have ever had the privilege to view. Well produced and wonderfully presented. I cried, I laughed, and I groaned.

Left the theatre room feeling I had missed an amazing chapter of history that I should have been aware of.
