XD Lisztomania is so crazy, but I love it. I need to get myself a copy on VHS for the Hell of it. Paul and Roger are just amazing...in a weird 70s sort of way.
I love this movie and own a copy -- one of my favorite films ever!! Definitely a must-have for any Liszt or Daltrey fans out there, and I'm both. VERY underrated for such an original/entertaining/metaphorical and surprisingly historical film!
Liszt was a fucking geniooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuus, wagener was a facccccccckiiiiiiiiiiiiing genious, bach was a fucking genious, beethoven was a fucking genious...
@ItalianDivo101 ... Ohhhhh myyyyy ... I wish I was that woman in the scene at around the 2 and 15 seconds mark... Wow... very sexy! I'm sooo in love with Roger... and have been for about 33 years... I like all ages too... HOTT
I agree! I get so f*cking tired of straight-forward biopics with no traces of originality whatsoever. I wish more filmmakers today would take a cue (or five) from Ken Russell.
Excellent. Those who have read accounts of Liszt's life and times might notice a couple of minor historical inaccuracies (two that come to mind are that (1) it is well known that Rossini preferred KFC to Popeye's; and (2) it is said that Wagner did not wear sailor suits until later in his career), but they are for the most part inconsequential.
This highly sensitive film is historically very accurate. It gives very good insight into the life and work of the great Liszt, and his troubled relation with Wagner. The Wagner-transcription is played superbly and with taste.
Hey Rog, there's something in your face. At 2:12. :P OMG I love Richard :D:D

It's amazing how they were able to introduce all of the major composers of the time:P
This was HILARIOUS!!!
Did you know that Liszt was Wagners father in law? Liszt's daughter married him :P
And whats up with the spotlights in the mid 1800's?
