Director Morgan Neville takes an unconventional approach to storytelling in 'Piece by Piece', a documentary about Pharrell Williams, using Lego figurines to bring celebrity interviews to life. This experimental format allows for a playful yet profound exploration of Williams' influence on music.
Among the highlights are vivid recreations of significant cultural moments, including Martin Luther King's iconic 'I Have A Dream' speech, which juxtaposes Williams' life with broader societal issues, effectively adding depth to the documentary's narrative.
Despite some pacing issues and a somewhat abrupt ending, 'Piece by Piece' manages to create an engaging and humorous portrayal of Pharrell Williams, echoing his creative spirit through the lens of childhood toys.
The film celebrates not only Pharrell's stellar collaborations with superstars but also his evolution as an artist, using Lego to illustrate moments that are both whimsical and profound, sneakily critiquing the industry as it reflects on his journey.
