    There is a delicious film called "Thirty two short films about Glenn Gould" which is a must for the curious. A brilliant piece of film-making about a quirky genius. It is 32 short films, each 2 to 6 minutes long as I recall. Available on Amazon, I lucked into seeing it on the big screen years ago when it first came out.

    If you haven't already seen it, I'd recommend watching Thirty Two Short Films About Glenn Gould. I'm not familiar enough with Gould's life to comment as to its accuracy as a biopic, but the film is definitely unique and interesting, painting a non-linear mosaic of his accomplishments, quirkiness, and genius.
