    Gould's flaw is that he puts too much emphasis on intelligence, so German-made classics suit him. But listening to him is like looking at Chinese literati paintings. Personal imprint is too...

    Shit, my soul is pierced at three o'clock in the morning. A theme montage perfectly includes all the film structure forms and shooting and editing techniques. Each fragment becomes a movement, which merges together to form the entire rhythmic loop. The long shot that echoes at the end speaks of the spacecraft carrying human civilization ascending into space, and the Bach played by Goodell flying out of the solar system is too romantic and sad, great and...

    I understand the intention of some of the ideas, but whether the combination of virtual and real will lead to deliberately and intentionally guiding the other party to pay attention to the information they want to convey and whether it is reasonable, these are my questions without...

    Well-designed narrative, there is also an interesting editing relationship between short films and short films. There is nothing more romantic than the music played by Gould representing the human flight into the infinite...

    4.0's varied episodes reveal Gould's life-long secrets. He is half sea and half flame, but he can perfectly interpret the quiet and restrained Bach. Just because no matter what state he is in, he is so...

Thirty Two Short Films About Glenn Gould quotes

  • [first lines]

    Glenn Gould: [voiceover] My mother tells me that by five years old I had decided definitively to become a concert pianist. I think she had decided some time earlier. The story goes that while I was in the womb she played the piano continuously to give me a head start, and evidently it paid off. My mother was my first teacher, and I've never doubted her methods. After all, she introduced me to Bach.

  • [last lines]

    Glenn Gould: [voiceover] In the fall of 1977, the US government sent two ships, Voyagers 1 and 2, into space, where they are eventually destined to reach the edge of our galaxy. In the hope that someone, somewhere, would intercept these craft, a variety of messages were placed on board, that would be capable of communicating the existence of an intelligent creature, living on a planet called Earth. Among these was included a short prelude by Johann Sebastian Bach, as performed by Glenn Gould. Voyagers 1 and 2 left our solar system, respectively, in 1987 and 1989.
