…would be fascinating, jolting and almost certainly astonishing. Imagine a Lego recreation of the 9/11 attacks from every perspective…a Lego recreation of the horrors of Dachau, Auschwitz or Bergen-Belsen…a Lego recreation of the 1969 Manson family murder spree or the Patty Hearst kidnapping saga.
But a Lego version of the musical life and career of Pharell (pronounced phar-ELL) Williams? Later, bruh. Much later.
Morgan Neville‘s Piece by Piece will screen tonight and tomorrow at the Telluride Film Festival (I heard last night it’ll be shown at this afternoon’s secret patron’s screening at the Herzog), and I am telling you here and now that I will not sit through a Lego movie at this festival….I won’t! Unless, as noted, it’s about some horrible, ghastly tragedy. Then I’m wide open.
