The Harmony Game

The documentary tells the story of an album. The album is Bridge Over Troubled Water. The recording was done in 1970. It was the last album by the duo of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. The film goes back to those sessions half a century later. The work in the studio is at the centre of the account. How the album came about is the subject of the account. The relationship between the two is inside the account as well. Musicians who played on the sessions speak in the film. Fred Carter Jr. and Hal Blaine are among them. The manager Mort Lewis gives his account too. The album turned out to be the last work the two made together. The parting falls inside that same period. Charles Grodin also appears in Jennifer Lebeau’s American documentary of 2011.
