It was disappointing to see some of the vitriol he would receive for some of the comments that he's made or for some of the positions that he has...I know him as a person, and he is erudite, pensive, and caring—he's just a great soul when you meet him one-on-one and you really get to know him.

The movie was adored for its endearing, if ungainly interaction between its two main characters: a fastidious, erudite African American pianist (Mahershala Ali, who won his second Best Supporting Actor Oscar in two years Sunday playing Don Shirley) and the coarse, big-hearted white nightclub bouncer (Viggo Mortensen) chauffeuring him on a concert tour through the racially segregated South of the early 1960s.

Slice open the band's tripartite brain—the collective minds of Wise, Cory Feierman, William Schmiechen—and you'll see two distinct lobes; one half's guided by the tripped-out carnality of 60s psych, manifested in heavy-lidded hooks and freewheeling solos, while the other belies a far more erudite (and distinctly New York) praxis, adopted out of necessity: carefully-plotted tours, rigid studio schedules, and playback sessions.
