Started out knowing nothing about Heifetz except a familiarity with his name. Saw the documentary at the RiverRun Film Festival in Winston-Salem where Peter Rosen was in attendance. Haifetz himself could carry the film with his electrifying performances, but credit goes to the filmmaker for taking great care in restoring Heifetz's very old recordings. Heifetz's notes are played throughout the film to great effect, and it created a veritable trance in this viewer, and held my attention throughout as his life story unfolds. His life was not full of high drama, but he was a quiet and often conflicting character. This film caught that dichotomy quite well and is an excellent showcase for the master's music.
