Glass: A Portrait of Philip in 12 Parts
Saturday 14th February 6:00 PM - Studio (TBTL)
Director:Scott Hicks
Cert:TBC Year: 2007 Length:115mins
Country:Australia/USA
Scott Hicks was converted to the music of Philip Glass by his children. Now he has compiled a sumptuous and musically rich portrait of the man himself, seen from twelve different angles. Glass is a workaholic with a very particular aesthetic; only late moments from his wife Holly suggest there’s an emotional price to pay.
Critics
“Much like its subject: affable, quotable and emotionally guarded in the extreme.”
