‘Wayne Shorter: Zero Gravity’ Review: A Jazz Mystic
  + stars: | 2023-08-25 | by ( John Anderson | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Wayne Shorter Photo: Prime VideoAt the end of “Portal 1”—as episodes of “ Wayne Shorter : Zero Gravity” are designated—bassist Dave Holland recalls a comment by the late, great saxophonist-composer at the heart of the series. “I wonder what happens when you get to the end of the universe,” mused Mr. Shorter, whose life and career were spent traveling along the edge of the art-jazz cosmos; it seems perfectly reasonable that an astrophysicist ( Neil deGrasse Tyson ) should be among the prominent players in a Shorter story. And one of the intoxicating things about “Zero Gravity” is that writer-director Dorsay Alavi not only appreciates her subject’s space-child inclinations, but makes them an essential part of her musical, celestial, must-see documentary.
