Sonny Rollins Beyond the Notes (2014) User Reviews

More of a concert than a documentary

[jellopuke · 6/10 · 13 July 2021]

While this was a great concert in parts, it wasn't much of a documentary, really only lightly breezing by the key points between the live bits. I saw him on tour at this time and he was incredible, but I would have rather seen a more in depth look at his career instead of the show. Still worth it for fans though!

good biopic of great musician

Beyond the Note is a better than average biopic. It illuminates Rollin's two "sabbatical" periods as well.
