Reviews

This is a dramatic exploration into the life and works of Franz Schubert. Featuring excerts from many of his compositions, the central narrative occurs during Schubert's hospitalisation for syphilis, the contraction of which was both a consequence of his darker inclinations and a spur to some of his greatest work. As the doctors diagnose Schubert's symptoms, identify their cause and administer treatment, the composer conducts his own internal imaginative examination, a sometimes delirious and dreamlike evocation of the moments and music from his past life. The characters he recalls are his maverick friend and ' Svengali,' Franz von Schober, his authoritarian father, his illustrious but conformist patron Michael Vogl and his unfulfilled love Karoline Esterhazy.

too bad! 30 Nov 2010

By Couperin

Really bad! I don't want to express my negative feelings for this movie!
But I just want to inform you that these movies have nothing to say except that Schubert was a dirty minded creature who had sex with many prostitutes and was genius etc.
This man not only does not look like Schubert but also he is much older than Schubert maximal age! (31) he only were round glasses!!! this is just coming from nothing to buy a film about a GREAT composer!
