A profoundly enigmatic musical poet, there have been many documentaries about Glenn Gould, typically sidetracked by his eccentricities, focusing on the pills and gloves and scarves - missing the man, the magic and the message behind his music. American Masters artfully pierces through the misconceptions about this humming and hunched figure, whose fingers played piano as no one's before.
