This is another one of those documentaries that I'm glad I saw because it introduced me to an interesting personality. I'm not a fan of jazz music, and I've only heard John Coltrane's name maybe a couple of times in my life without showing any interest in him. Now, thanks to the film, I at least know that he was very important to the music. And that jazz is worth listening to.
