Comments and Reviews


Diosma 11th Jan 2024		This is a film that must be seen. If I attempted to describe or review it.... well, I would fail to do justice to it or you would fail to believe it. Instead, let me quote from Roger Ebert's review from October 1975: "Ken Russell's "Lisztomania" has little, if anything, to do with the life and music of Franz Liszt - or of Wagner, Beethoven, Chopin and the other unfortunates it tramples on the way to its manic conclusion. No, this isn't a biography, not even in the sense that Russell ravaged poor Tchaikovsky in "The Music Lovers." It's a berserk exercise of demented genius, and on that level (I want to make my praise explicit) it functions and sometimes even works. Most people will probably despise. it."
