Cinematique Presents "Seymour: An Introduction"

Ethan Hawke's gentle, meditative study of genius pianist Seymour Bernstein offers a warm and lucid portrait of his exceptional life and work. This reverent film also functions as a love letter to music itself and the patience, concentration and devotion with which Seymour approached his love of music and life. (PG, 1 hr 24 min)

"Seymour: An Introduction gives viewers a soaring, sublime and enduringly meaningful glimpse of a man who is undoubtedly the real thing." - Ann Hornaday, Washington Post

"Seymour: An Introduction is just that - not too much biography, or history.  And one needn't be a music aficionado, or a musician, to appreciate the modest erudition coming from this man." - Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
