Mozart's Sister (2011) HD Movie Trailer

[xCherrymistx]

someone PLEASE tell me what song is playing in the beginning, like at 0:27

[MsCerealKiller]

A very underrated movie.

[VintageSteampunk]

What is the music Being played??? Is there a download of it somewhere???

[GuqinZheng]

@VintageSteampunk If you go to the french official website of the movie, there will be something on the top saying "musique" Click that, and there are all of the pieces from the movie:)

[vryselctiv]

i read the book about mozart's family life and there's was some points in the book that will upset and make people laugh. anyhow it was a let down for me. the music in it was pushing it along and the sister was being washed through and not enough information was given. left me wanting more

[VintageSteampunk]

@vryselctiv Mozart's sister and marrying Mozart, a bit of fiction in both but good reads

[slopoke2112]

Drove two hours from San Antonio to see it in Austin. It was worth it. Amazing movie!!! Is it historically factual? Not sure, but that doesn't mean it is not an impossibility that she helped him with his compositons. It seems true even now. We live in a male-dominated society even the fact that people argue the center theme of this movie makes it so. It threatens our notions of Mozart and a patriarchial society. ps. see "All mornings of the world' if you liked this movie...

[iDraw3G]

Honestly, who gives a shit about his sister?

[SianyJulia]

@iDraw3G

Maybe you'll give a shit when you actually pull your head out of your ass and realise that Nannerl was a musical prodigy, and actually considered a better violinist than Mozart himself. Like many women in history she was a fascinating, talented woman beaten into submission by society. But we wouldnt expect someone as narrow minded as you to understand that concept so run along now :)

[iDraw3G]

@SianyJulia Lick my sweaty balls

[SianyJulia]

@iDraw3G

Wow, such an intellectual response.

[iDraw3G]

@SianyJulia You know I'm going to be jacking off to your profile picture, right?

[SianyJulia]

@iDraw3G

I wouldn't expect any more of somone with your mental capacity...

[iDraw3G]

@SianyJulia Well, I'll also jizz all over it if that makes you feel any better

[SianyJulia]

@iDraw3G Awesome.

[WJE811]

Most movies in the free wold are in English, french and german. This is where the monies are made.

[slopoke2112]

French speaking Austrians??? Oh I forgot they really speak English like in Milos Forman's, "Amadeus"... Give me a break already!!!

[KristaMcKinneyFilms]

Does anyone know where to get the soundtrack?

[GuqinZheng]

@KristaMcKinneyFilms I don't think that they sold their soundtrack, but i know that all the pieces are on the official french website of the movie. Look in wikipedia and on the bottom, there are two links that say official website. click in the one that has the word "French" in parenthesis. you should easily find it:)

[Wolfen443]

I loved it but it was so sad too. The music concerto that she prepares for Louis XV is amazing, but she lived under the shadow of her brother & the limitations of society at the time. The historical detail given to the soon to collapse French monarchy is amazing. The music her & her brother compose & play amazing still.

[FernandoLuis191]

You can see it in movies too. I ALWAYS hear you yanks and brits using French phrases daily like Deja Vu, C'est La Vie, Menage a troi, Tour de force, A la carte, Au Contraire, Bon Voyage, Bon Appettite, Coup d'etat, Creme de la creme,..etc etc... Face it, NEVER have the U.S. or U.K. being more culturally important than France.

[cassiegomoo]

wanna see!!!

[GuqinZheng]

does anyone know the piece at 0:13? please respond:)

[DMEnfield]

@GuqinZheng

Well, I suspect that it is an original composition by the woman who wrote the original score for the film, Marie-Jeanne Serrero. It isn't music by Nannerl, Wolfgang, or Leopold, or I will eat my hat.

[arthereld]

God, now I know how weird other countries feel when America makes tons of English speaking movies taking place in nonEnglish speaking countries.

[Dramactica]

@arthereld

yeah. this movie is really good. I smell an Oscar in the foreign category.

[humpfrog]

Why are they playing Bach in the trailer??? For fuck sake!!!

[Bloodshotshatterbone]

I just found out a cute fact ^^ Mozart's sister inspired him to learn music because before he was old enough to be taught he'd watch her be taught by their father. They would also play imaginary games together in which they ruled a mystical land together and she would let him write in her diary once in a while :)

[Bloodshotshatterbone]

For all of you who are wondering why they are speaking in French and not german: First of all it wasn't unusual for rich people to speak 5 languages back then. It was frowned apon to be able only to speak your native tongue. Secondly it's a film made by the french so naturally they would have it in their own language.

[Bloodshotshatterbone]

I've just looked Mozart's sister up on google and apparently they worked together and made lots of amazing music but none of it got published simply because one of the composers (Mozart's sis) was a female. >< This was devastating. If there hadn't been sexual discrimination we could have had even more amazing music from that period than we do now.

[AngryAtTechnology75]

when does this come out?

[AncientHistoryBuff]

I think she would have been even better than Mozart, had she been given the chance.

[tinyharuka]

women deserve a chance

[AngryAtTechnology75]

@tinyharuka LOL... thats funny,,,

[Heifsin85]

Mozarts sister could have had a nice little career as a composer, but in no way would be remembered today.

[squamish4244]

Even if this movie is totally off the rails with regards to historical accuracy, it is true that Mozart's sister Nannerl was also a child prodigy but in that day and age it was unthinkable for a woman to make a living as a composer. She also had several love interests but Leopold pushed her into marrying a widower twice her age. Would she have been as good as Mozart, given the chance? We'll never know, and that's the point.

[HerrMozartsMusic]

I love how it says "The TRUE story of Mozart's sister..."

Um, no it's not.

[pearlearring17]

Mozart better have a funny laugh, otherwise I will be highly put out!

[nosoytaliban]

@pearlearring17 haha, I hear ya bro! 

[nosoytaliban]

@pearlearring17 haha, I hear ya bro!

[trippletrain77]

coming next year, motzarts cat,

[trippletrain77]

ok im confused first they speak german now french please tell me it not gona change again

[blissaru]

@trippletrain77 back in the day, aristocrats spoke many languages. It was a high "selling feature" of parents to marry off their female offspring. It was well sought after to have many languages under your belt.

[trippletrain77]

@blissaru  oh, now i understand

[poltergiest11]

magnificint! im watching this high, tis so beautiful!!!!

[Fapsamup]

Merde.

[fuzzylogic218]

Wow they are remaking "Just one of the boys" will she whip out her boobs at the end as well when she professes her love for the loveable loser character?

[GuqinZheng]

Please someone, what is the musical piece at 0:34?

[Orionofearth]

So gay

[shk123]

Coming Next year, Mozart 's Wig Maker

[GuqinZheng]

@shk123 that was hilerious, Wig maker? I died laughing:)

[HerrMozartsMusic]

@shk123 ...I think you will love it....

[bmh4d0k3n]

@shk123 That's fucking rude and dismissive. There is evidence that Nannerl was a musical genius -- perhaps one comparable to her brother. She has a fascinating life story but was largely ignored after her childhood because she was a woman. And who knows? Maybe Mozart's Wig Maker was also an under-appreciated talent.

[SuperJinj]

Wow.... French speaking austrians... ==

[vintagefish921]

@SuperJinj French was the language spoken by the aristocracy all throughout Europe, including the Imperial Court in Vienna.

[FernandoLuis191]

@SuperJinj Aristocrats all over Europe used to speak French, that's a fact.

[wilb6657]

@FernandoLuis191 Yeah...but how many non-French, non-aristocrats do you think spoke French amongst themselves, while not at court? You know, in their every day business? They should have hired German speaking actors.

[FernandoLuis191]

@wilb6657 Yeah, but why does no one ever complain about romans speaking in English? Or Germans speaking in English? Or Russians speaking in English?. It's just absurd how no one ever complains about that.

[wilb6657]

@FernandoLuis191 English is a more widely spoken and understood language than French. It just is. Now, I guess French people made this movie, so it must be in French. However, if they were going for historical accuracy...they should have done it in German.

[FernandoLuis191]

@wilb6657 Even so, people still watch it with subtitles regardless of the language they speak in the movie, so what's all the fuzz?. I would say it's a plus, Id rather listen to French than English(come on, we all know English is not a very pretty language, it's a very monosyllabic language, like chinese).

Cheers.

[chizzieshark]

@FernandoLuis191 Chinese is monosyllabic but English is definitely not. Granted though, it is rather convoluted.

[FernandoLuis191]

@chizzieshark Sure it is. Wall, floor, door, lamp, shoe, chair, dog, cat, hand, eye, teeth.....etc etc. And the words that are long, are always shortened. Gym, Pop,Cell, etc etc.

[chizzieshark]

@FernandoLuis191 It has monosyllabic words but that does not make it a monosyllabic language. To be one, it would have to be impossible to have words with more than one syllable (like Chinese).

[FernandoLuis191]

@chizzieshark Of course it is. The only words that are longer are Latin words.

[chizzieshark]

@FernandoLuis191 English borrows words from Latin, French and others, but even in its Germanic origins it has not been monosyllabic (read some Old English). Regardless, modern English cannot be monosyllabic because many words are pronounced with more than one syllable; the origin of these words are immaterial. Now I speak Chinese, English and German, so I think I know a true monosyllabic language when I see one.

[FernandoLuis191]

@chizzieshark Yes, and I speak English, French, and Spanish, and jn regards to any Romance language, English is pretty monosyllabic in comparison

[FernandoLuis191]

@wilb6657 By the way. France became so culturally important that many people chose to speak French than their own native language. That never happened with English language, not even here in the border.

[wilb6657]

@FernandoLuis191 What you say is partially true. French WAS a hugely important language back in these times. However, its use was MOSTLY limited to aristocrats and members of the courts. However, very few non-French people spoke French outside of their government jobs/settings. Furthermore, we have letters and diary entries written by Mozart himself, and they are in German, of course. So there is no logical reason to assume his sister would have spoken anything but German, as well.

[FernandoLuis191]

@wilb6657 Like I said. A thing that NEVER happened with English language, not even here in the border. And what's so absurd about Austrians speaking French? We have a film called Marie Antoinette where all the characters are French but everyone speaks English. Face it, United States isn't as culturally important as you guys think. You guys exagerate your influence.

[wilb6657]

@FernandoLuis191 Lol, WHEN did I ONCE mention the United States?! I haven't once. Also, the English language HAS become what the French language once was-some would even say it has SURPASSED what the French language once was. But really, the spread of English is more due to the British Empire, than to the United States. And once more, to re-emphasise: these AUSTRIAN characters would/should be speaking GERMAN.

[FernandoLuis191]

@wilb6657 Nope, I've NEVER heard of people choosing to speak English rather than their native language. NEVER. While many people speak English as a 2nd language, it is only due to the fact that the U.S. is the # 1 world economy. They don't learn English because they are interested in your culture. And as soon as China or other country becomes a better economy than the U.S., be assured that people will start to learn that language instead.

[wilb6657]

@FernandoLuis191 Really? Because I HAVE heard of people choosing to speak English as opposed to their native language. But like I said...the spread of English has to do with the BRITISH EMPIRE more than the United States. Why do you keep bringing the US up? Yeah, I personally am an American, but what does that have to do with my point.

[FernandoLuis191]

@wilb6657 That's bullshit and you know it. No MIDDLE class citizen of ANY country would choose English over their native language.That's a fact. British "Empire"? My ass. Why do you think phrases like "bloody" are not used in any English speaking country other than England? Because the U.S. has become the most important English speaking country, so their phrases are used in England, Scotland, Australia, etc. "British Empire" got nothing to do with it.

[wilb6657]

@FernandoLuis191 It depends, man. I have personally noticed that non-native English speakers in Europe, Africa and the Middle East use more British slang in their English-speech than "Americanisms". And you wanna talk about "middle class" citizens? Well, do you think that any "middle class" or even "upper class", non-native French speakers spoke French in everday life, as opposed to their native language? Come on.

[FernandoLuis191]

@wilb6657 Come on, man. People have NEVER chosen to speak English rather than their own native language. That's a FACT. NOT even here in the border. Neither the U.S. or U.K. are as culturally important as you think. In fact, both American and British culture is heavily influenced by Europe, and more obviously by FRANCE. You can see it in YOUR language. See how many words English borrows from French. And let's not forget how many times you've used French phrases like Deja Vu, Menage a troi...etc

[wilb6657]

@FernandoLuis191 Ugh. You have some points, but overall your understanding of History, and of languages is horribly skewed. First of all, the majority of French influence on the English language comes from the Normans, who existed during a time when "France" was a very different entity than it is now. Therefore, crediting the NORMAN influence on English language/culture to the FRENCH, is laughable at best.

[FernandoLuis191]

@wilb6657 Normans were French! They civilized you! You can´t deny that. Italy civilized France, and France civilized England. That's a fact. Don't know why you getting so angry, everyone knows English culture is HEAVILY influenced by France. While English might be the most COMMERCIALLY important language, it is not the most CULTURALLY important language. That was my point.

[blissaru]

@FernandoLuis191 YUP! true story!

[FernandoLuis191]

@SuperJinj Would you rather have them speak in English? You are a dumbass

[blissaru]

@SuperJinj yes, as it was back in this day aristocrats had their children schooled in many languages. It was not uncommon at all for nobility to know many tongues. Latin and French were always very prestigious to know. The wealthy were expected to be able to speak many languages. It was often scoffed at to only know one's native tongue.

[blissaru]

[squamish4244]

@SuperJinj Germans, actually, nobody called themselves "Austrians" back then. It is jarring to hear them speaking French, but how many historical movies has Hollywood made with the French, Spanish, Germans, Russians, etc. mysteriously speaking English, usually with a British accent? Lol.

[marykunz]

@SuperJinj As a Mozart fan, I have to point out, the Mozarts spoke German but they were fluent in French! So, not that far-fetched...

[Bloodshotshatterbone]

@SuperJinj In that time period rich children were taught many languages and it wasn't unusual for a child to be able to speak five fluently.

[BayStateChick]

@SuperJinj It's not that crazy. It's actually common. Americans do it all the time, but in English instead. A good example is Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette. It takes place in France with French characters, yet the whole film is English.

[angelea85]

Looking forward to this. =)

[2550keele3]

it was funnier on the simpsons
