  • Starring: Sarah Wynter, Vincent Perez
  • Summary: A romantic portrait of Alma Mahler, an extraordinary woman who inspired, bedeviled and captivated the artistic geniuses of her age. (Paramount Classics)
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 3 out of 26
  2. Negative: 10 out of 26
  1. It's a movie of elegant surfaces, great background music (by both the Mahlers), gossipy underpinnings and pretensions to romantic grandeur.
  2. Stuffing 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.
