VHS Movie Reviews of Immortal Beloved
Movie Review: One of My Favorites
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is romantic, it's got more twists and turns than the airport in Florida, it's poetic, it's artistic and I love the music (listening to it, learning more about it and how it was written).
If you like to listen to more Beethoven, you may like to check out Keyboard Conversations?: The Power and Passion of Beethoven (Keyboard Conversations) (this comes as a cd)
Movie Review: Immortal Gary Oldman
Summary: 5 Stars
It's been a while since I have seen this movie. But it still resonates within me. Gary Oldman is one of my absolute favorite actors, and this movie is a testament to his abilities. Powerful, beautiful, classical. I loved this movie!Movie Review: Beautiful and tragic
Summary: 5 Stars
Wonderful recounting of Beethoven's life, though not exactly true to history; but after doing some research, I could see that in order to not distract the viewer with a lot of details, it was necessary to combine truisms and take a few liberties in order to make a point. For instance, the fact that it was never discovered who his Immortal Beloved ever was in reality; that it could have been a number of women, and the "letter" was actually a series of three letters written over several days would have been confusing and taken away from the drama and intensity at hand. Obviously, someone had to be chosen as his Immortal Beloved and someone was. It is still worth seeing and will bring the most avid classical musical lover to tears. If you want a good cry, hear beautiful music, and watch great acting, you must see this movie.Movie Review: Not so great
Summary: 2 Stars
While watching this, I couldn't help feeling that the director was TRYING to make a masterpiece, rather than actually produce one. The acting is good, but not extraordinary. As far as the actual shots and music editing, I felt as though I was watching a made-for-TV movie. Many times throughout the movie, Beethoven's glorious music was just playing in the background, with no connection to the story. Absolutely poor music editing! Come on now, Beethoven deserves nothing less than brilliance...Movie Review: Great "demo disc" for showing friends 1080p at it's best.
Summary: 5 Stars
This blu-ray disc is a must have for any fan of classical music. I was pleasantly surprised at how extremely good the hi-def picture looks and the music is amazing in surround sound. Highly recommend.
