Product Description

Product Description

Gary Oldman, Jeroen Krabbe, Isabella Rossellini and Valeria Golino star in IMMORTAL BELOVED, a mesmerizing mystery based on the tumultuous real life of Ludwig van Beethoven. Oldman gives a tour de force performance as the passionate, volatile genius who inspired love and hatred in equal measure. Whether seducing regal followers or criticizing the ruling class, Beethoven made many enemies. But he also had one true love, the unnamed "Immortal Beloved" mentioned in an enigmatic letter discovered upon his death. The thrilling search for the identity of this mystery woman leads us into Beethoven'sdark past, his hidden passions, and, ultimately, into the unparalleled genius of his music.

Set Contains:

This sumptuous and moving 1994 film written and directed by Bernard Rose (Candyman) investigates the artistic and romantic passions of one of the greatest composers of all time. Featuring a superb performance by Gary Oldman (Sid and Nancy) as Ludwig van Beethoven, Immortal Beloved is full of uncommonly vivid, rich imagery as it charts the tumultuous life of the deaf child prodigy and his rise to the height of musical achievement. Along the way, he attempts to play mentor to his nephew, attend to his many passionate romances--the most stable one was with a countess (Isabella Rossellini)--and fight bouts of depression and madness that ruled his life and his art. The film is framed around a "Rosebud"-type letter found after the composer's death that makes up the crux of the story. Jeroen Krabbé (The Fugitive), playing Beethoven's lifelong friend, attempts to discover who Beethoven's muse really was, becoming as driven as his friend in discovering the unlikely identity of the composer's "immortal beloved." Through this we gain an insight into the nature of obsession, romance, and the heights and sacrifices of artistic achievement. The film exhibits some extraordinary sound design, and the finale features a magical encapsulation of Beethoven's life and loves set to his "Ode to Joy." As an exciting and passionate journey, Immortal Beloved is its own masterpiece. --Robert Lane

From what a read and believe, I do not think this movie is completely true to Beethoven's history. However, this movie is, well, beautiful, both visually and musically. Also it's a very emotionally moving story for me . The device of trying to find the woman whose signature matches that of a signature found in a hotel record I find cool, a word probably not used by "real" critics. And hey what's wrong with some nudity in there also when it's a young slim woman. You can tell perhaps I really don't care if a critic would call it "gratuitous". On the serious side if you were beaten as a child the early childhood of Beethoven may raise strong emotions and bitter memories. Again I emphasize the beauty: the costumes, the country, the elegant architecture, and of course Beethoven's music! Oh, I post my photo. I was told the photo looks like Beethoven photos on the internet, but then Beethoven is described as ugly so was that a compliment? I digress , excuse my self indulgent review. But my view of real critics is they love to hear, or read, of themselves also. Judge the movie for yourself if you see it, in part, due to my review.
