"A truly clever pop musician can do so much with so little." 1091 Media / The Orchard has released an official US trailer for an indie music documentary called Shut Up and Play the Piano, a profile of the pop music icon known as Chilly Gonzales. This first premiered at the Berlin Film Festival last year, and is finally getting a release in the US next month for those who have been waiting to see it. The doc film follows Grammy-winning musician Chilly Gonzales (real name: Jason Charles Beck born in Montreal) on his rise from Canada to the world's great philharmonic halls. "Using Gonzales' extensive video archive in a rather unorthodox manner, Shut Up & Play the Piano explores his persona by interweaving newly shot interviews and concert scenes with fictional materials of totally different time periods. Reality and fiction blur together as we embark on a trip through Chilly Gonzales' world." I caught this film at Berlinale and it was one of my favorite films of that year, and it made me a huge fan of Chilly. Here's my full review - a brilliant discovery. ›››
