A two-part Paul Simon documentary directed by Oscar winner Alex Gibney has been acquired by MGM+ and will premiere on the cable network next month. In anticipation, the first trailer has been revealed and is streaming below.
In Restless Dreams: The Music of Paul Simon is described in a press release as “the definitive musical biography” of the folk singer, and details an immersive journey into the life and work of “one of the greatest songwriters (and performers) in the history of rock ‘n’ roll.” It’s set to premiere on MGM+ on March 17th and March 24th at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT.
The docuseries captures Simon at work on his latest musical project, Seven Psalms, as well as never-before-seen footage of his career, from Simon & Garfunkel to Bridge Over Troubled Water and Graceland. It also features exclusive interviews with friends and collaborators, including jazz heavyweight Wynton Marsalis, SNL’s Lorne Michaels, and Simon’s wife and fellow musician, Edie Brickell.
In Restless Dreams originally premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September. Gibney, David Rahtz, Erin Edeiken, and Svetlana Zill produced the project.
Though Simon made a surprise appearance at the Newport Folk Festival in 2022, a return to live music may not be in the future. This past May, Simon revealed in an interview that he’s lost almost all his hearing in one ear.
