“It’s the purest form of art I’ve ever experienced from any human being,” Spielberg says of Williams’ work. The movie digs into Williams’s background and family, and showcases a bunch of luminaries waxing on about the composer’s legacy, including commentary from filmmakers George Lucas, Kathleen Kennedy, Ron Howard and J.J. Abrams as well as Coldplay frontman Chris Martin. “Music” focuses on Williams playing the piano and discussing what his long career has meant to him: “Music is enough for a lifetime, but a lifetime is not enough for music.”
Directed by filmmaker/author , “Music by John Williams” opens AFI Fest on Oct. 23 before premiering on Disney+ Nov. 1.
