63It's a movie of elegant surfaces, great background music (by both the Mahlers), gossipy underpinnings and pretensions to romantic grandeur.
-
58A rather dull movie.
-
50There's great music and lovely settings, but the filmmakers have done little more with their subject than reiterate the Britannica's description of her.
-
38Stuffing painters, writers and, naturally, Gustav Mahler (Jonathan Pryce) into about 90 minutes, the film comes off as little more than a handsomely mounted scorecard of sexual escapades.
