Herbie Hancock: Possibilities


Rating = C+

This film is a sort-of documentary about the making of a music CD where Hancock works with a number of other music (and production) artists. It was fun to see people I'd heard of but never seen before and people I'd never heard of before. It was also fun to see the snippets of music, but disappointing now to hear complete songs. The Hancock can play all these different styles at will is impressive. His much repeated spiritual or humanist view of music and life detracted from the film for me.
