So here\u2019s a revised forecast: We now live in a time when everyone can (and a great many will) have documentaries made about them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    That may already be true for musicians, so it will surprise no one to learn that it\u2019s \u201cH<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>y\u201d hook factory Pharrell Williams\u2019 turn. What you probably didn\u2019t see coming was the form, which is every bit as playful as his music. In \u201cPiece by Piece,\u201d no sooner does Williams sit for his interview with director Morgan Neville than the rapper-producer-entrepreneur muses, \u201cWhat if we told my life with Legos?\u201d You know, a fully animated brickfilm, \u00e0 la \u201cThe Lego Movie,\u201d whose real-life subject would be repped by a CG plastic toy, with inked-on cheekbones and the best virtual lighting money can buy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Neville (who appears as a fuddy-duddy beige minifigure with a gray beard and glasses) chuckles nervously, as if to say: \u201cThat\u2019ll never happen.\u201d But if there\u2019s one thing \u201cPiece by Piece\u201d wants you to know, it\u2019s that Williams is frequently struck by inspiration that mere mortals cannot see. That\u2019s how he makes music \u2014 via synesthesia, whereby the beat appears to him as vivid colors in his brain. That\u2019s how he hatched successful lines of sneakers and skateboards and skincare and streetwear, plus the rare flop, like Q Qream liqueur.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    As Williams tells his music-savvy interlocutor (Neville also directed \u201cTwenty Feet From Stardom\u201d), going the Lego route is \u201cthe best way I can be my limitless self, without feeling weird.\u201d God forbid a documentary subject feel weird when sitting for an interview. And yet, for those who know their \u201cLego Movie\u201d lore, the choice makes a strange kind of sense \u2014 and certainly distinguishes this upbeat portrait from the oversaturated category of music docs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Recall that in Lord and Miller\u2019s 2014 blockbuster (which revolutionized the field of animated features but failed to score a nomination in the corresponding Oscar category), a totally unexceptional blue-collar minifigure is mistaken for \u201cthe Special\u201d: \u201cThe prophecy states that you are the most important, most talented, most interesting and most extraordinary person in the universe,\u201d he\u2019s told.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    In the world of \u201cPiece by Piece,\u201d that person is Pharrell Williams, whose nontraditional beat-making skills set the Virginia Beach-born prodigy apart \u2014 and whose positivity proves infectious. Underscored by fresh, neatly reworked versions of Williams\u2019 signature hits (plus several introspective new songs), the movie makes it feel like everyone can enjoy similar success, no matter their background, so long as they apply themselves. In that sense, it would make useful viewing in many an American classroom, where its inspirational potential outweighs the shortage of obstacles in his story.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Williams was fortunate to have adults who recognized his potential at practically every step, from the grandmother who gifted him a snare drum to producer Teddy Riley, who opened Future Records across the street from Williams\u2019 high school, where Timbaland and Missy Elliott were also students. Riley signed the Neptunes (Williams\u2019 first group) after witnessing them at a school talent show, then put Williams to work freestyling his part on Wreckx-n-Effect\u2019s \u201cRump Shaker\u201d (as it happens, Lego rumps do not shake, and yet, Pure Imagination\u2019s CG restaging of the video is still worth the price of admission).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    No one could blame the hip-hop prodigy for being impatient. The movie turns his hunger into humor, as Williams hustles his way into record labels and A&amp;R reps\u2019 offices. It\u2019s fun to see Jay-Z, Gwen Stefani and Justin Timberlake in Lego form, as Neville dynamically recaps the Neptunes\u2019 contributions to pop music. Represented as bouncing blocks of color, Williams\u2019 beats are hot commodities, launching more than a dozen Billboard Top 10 tracks for artists looking for a funky original sound. Appearing in a cloud of virtual marijuana smoke, Snoop Dogg describes how Pharrell \u201csaw the fun in me\u201d with \u201cDrop It Like It\u2019s Hot,\u201d delivering the rapper\u2019s first No. 1 hit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    So where\u2019s the conflict? Williams\u2019 solo career took longer to catch on than supporters expected \u2014 something the artist blames on arrogance, although immaturity seems to be the main obstacle to a kid who, according to Jay-Z, had \u201cnot a drop of street\u201d in him. \u201cYou couldn\u2019t tell me life wasn\u2019t amazing,\u201d Williams says, looking back on an upbringing others might consider disadvantaged. Today, as a husband and father, Williams has such an appreciative \u201ceverything is awesome\u201d attitude, it\u2019s hard to take the career setbacks as anything more than speedbumps.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Paradoxically, the Lego approach gives the film a far more imaginative visual range than traditional documentaries, even as it robs us of the thing we most want to see: human faces. Compared to Lego\u2019s ultra-basic early stud-and-tube days, there are now custom pieces for nearly every purpose, from a scale-model Eiffel Tower to a random mention of E.T. And yet, those little yellow plastic heads and hands are much too limited to represent real people. The movie can only go so far in correcting that, supplying shades and facial expressions absent from the actual toy line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    While infinitely more difficult to produce, the Lego strategy can feel like a cheat at times \u2014 an indulgence that underscores the vanity aspet of the project. As producer and subject, Williams wants to be seen this way. Granted, the magic-hour-all-the-time \u201cfootage\u201d looks terrific, and there\u2019s meta amusement to be gleaned from all the CG-Lego substitutes the crew found for real-world people and props. Still, \u201cPiece by Piece\u201d looks entirely too slick to be seen as anything deeper than a spectacular branding exercise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Williams clearly sensed the unique way that animation can amplify certain emotions, illustrating abstract ideas with pop-art visuals. He first dabbled in the medium with \u201cDespicable Me,\u201d for which he wrote the music. Now, in what amounts to the ultimate Lego <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a>, he sees both toons and the versatile building-block toys as a metaphor for infinite creativity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
