Philip Glass Documentary Headed to Theaters

Philip Glass' modern classical scores have been featured in many films, but now the artist himself will hit the big screen.

Koch Lorber Films has acquired U.S. theatrical and home video rights to Scott Hicks' documentary "Glass: A Portrait of Philip in Twelve Parts." The feature includes interviews with Martin Scorsese, Errol Morris, Chuck Close, and Christopher Hampton in its exploration of Glass' life and work.

"Glass" was shot in the 18 months leading up to the artist's 70th birthday last year. It premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September.
