Why are guards in movies often shown holding their halberds in opposite hands? One left, one right? Do directors think it looks cool?

I like the story, but makes Bach behaving almost like Beethoven. By what I have read, he had occasional outbursts of temper, but in general he was a nice person. Besides that , by the preserved portraits, he was rather chubby.

@MrJorlop well this is set in 1717, the portaits of Bach were from his Later days , he wasnt always as big as he may looked in some of his portraits, every one will have outbursts of temper, if they dont they will die a horrible death,. but this film shows Bach to be gentile , productive and confident, he was nice enough to get a long with the boy in the films, and hes had 2 marriages with almost 20 kids, he was a nice family man musical genious,

@ArtyomAndreasyan the first piece is the violin concerto in a minor, the piece that starts at the end of this clip, and begins at the beging of the next clip, is the slow movement from the harpsichord concerto in f minor

I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!!!!

Best line ever: "Do you want God's truth?" "What other kind of truth is there?"

There was one of these films on Franz Liszt that I thought was cool as well. It was about him finding a Gypsy fiddler and giving him lessons and get him to rival Paganini.

I liked this one on Bach as well. I liked the story. However, what I find funny on it is that Bach did think very differently from his time, but he was thinking more backwards than forwards.
