CHASING TRANE is the definitive documentary film about an outside-the-box thinker with extraordinary talent whose boundary-shattering music continues to impact and influence people around the world. This smart, passionate, thought-provoking and uplifting documentary is for anyone who appreciates the power of music to entertain, inspire and transform. Written and directed by critically-acclaimed documentary filmmaker John Scheinfeld (The U.S. vs. John Lennon and Who Is Harry Nilsson...?) the film is produced with the full participation of the Coltrane family and the support of the record labels that collectively own the Coltrane catalog. Scheinfeld brings his strong story-telling skills to the creation of a rich, textured and compelling narrative that takes the audience to unexpected places. Set against the social, political and cultural landscape of the times, CHASING TRANE brings John Coltrane to life as a fully dimensional being, inviting the audience to engage with Coltrane the man, Coltrane the artist.
Leave your thoughts about Chasing Trane.
| Buffalo NewsJeff SimonThis is pretty close to the Coltrane doc of our dreams. |
| Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayWhen “Chasing Trane” serves up mesmerizing footage of Coltrane lost in the middle of a long solo, the film communicates something beyond words. |
| Christian Science MonitorPeter RainerJohn Coltrane, who died at age 40 in 1967, gets the comprehensive documentary treatment in John Scheinfeld's terrific Chasing Trane: The John Coltrane Documentary. |
| Detroit NewsAdam GrahamLike Coltrane's music, the sheer brilliance of his musicianship cuts through the clutter. |
| RogerEbert.comGlenn KennyChasing Trane streamlines the story of the jazz saxophonist, but it does so in a way that doesn’t feel like cheating. Scheinfeld’s approach is to give the viewer the forest, point out a few trees and get out, confident that those trees will inspire the viewer to spend more time in the forest. |
| Reel Talk OnlineCandice Frederick[The film] offers ripples in Coltrane's legacy, including his heroin addiction, less-than-perfect marriages, and spiritual awakening. But it still feels empty, uncritical, and completely disassociated with today's times. |
| Chicago ReaderBen SachsThis documentary about John Coltrane provides a fine overview of his career for the uninitiated and plenty of lesser-known information for fans. |
| leonardmaltin.comLeonard MaltinThis has been a rich year for jazz-related documentaries. That happy trend continues with Chasing Trane. |
| VarietyOwen Gleiberman“Chasing Trane” is a seductive piece of middle-of-the-road documentary filmmaking; it gives you the basics, but beautifully. |
| Philadelphia Daily NewsGary ThompsonSome are born great, others achieve greatness, and in the documentary Chasing Trane: The John Coltrane Documentary, we meet a musician who falls squarely in the latter camp. |
