Pharrell Williams' Lego Biopic 'Piece by Piece'

Pharrell Williams' unique biopic 'Piece by Piece,' directed by Morgan Neville, uses Lego animation to depict his life from a Virginia Beach housing project to becoming a renowned music producer. The film creatively portrays Williams' synesthesia and features Lego versions of collaborators like Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, and Missy Elliott. Williams chose Lego to make the story relatable for his children, illustrating his career with vibrant, blocky visuals. The documentary represents a genre-defying exploration of creativity and identity, supported by Lego's collaboration to tell a marginalized community's story. Released by Focus Features, it combines elements of music biopic, documentary, and family film, highlighting Williams' artistic journey and partnerships, notably with Chad Hugo in The Neptunes.
