Audience Member "I can play still, that's the most important thing." -Vladimir Horowitz, the one who reminds us that it's all about fun, something that we often forget in the ever-demanding world of a concert pianist. I don't care who you are- if this heartfelt documentary doesn't bring a smile to your face then I hate you.
