Rating:  - can't watch it
This DVD won't play in my player. And since I opened it I can't return it. Wasted money.
Rating: - Not an entertaining Movie.
This movie is in no way is as good as "A song to remember" with Cornell Wilde.I don't understand how a polish made movie woulg present Chopin in such a way it did even if it was true. I prefer to see the more positive side of Chopin and his greatness.
Rating:  - A most awkward film: CHOPIN,DESIRE FOR LOVE
There is not a lot of information about the relationship between pianist Frederic Chopin and authoress George Sand because their correspondence was destroyed. Hence, we have people conjecturing screenplays to tell their story.There are three cinematic attempts that are out there to tell this story.They all fall short of any truth.Thank God Frederic Chopin's music is wonderful,because this film about his life and "love" with George Sand from Polish writer/director Jerzy Antczak is an awkward and unfulfilling piece of Period Cinema that is simply put,bad!.The screenplay is disjointed and flips from person to place with no warning.The acting and voiceovers are atrocious.It would have been better had it been recorded in Polish with subtitles. This film tries to be an AMADEUS, but can never rise to such heights.No DVD extras.Not a recommended rental or purchase.
IMPROMPTU is a far more engaging and better acted film concerning Chopin and Sand.A SONG TO REMEMBER is lush 1930's Hollywood nonsense.
Rating:  - EVEN FOR THE MUSIC ALONE: IT'S WORTH IT!!!; WONDERFUL MOVIE!!!
The music of Polish Composer Chopin makes this DVD worth it. The story is excellent and truly captures Chopin (I've read many books on Chopin).
Cinematogrophy, scenery costuming are so real! With all its great points, again, the music, all by itself, is worth it - so beautiful; so Chopin!!!
It will take you away; A must for Chopin fans, lovers of beautiful music and, of course, all piano enthusiasts and teachers. Bravo!
Rating: - A Feast for eyes and ears
This movie may seem long to some, but the cinematography is exquisite, the music is glorious,performed by the likes of Emmanuel Ax and Yo-Yo MA
among other virtousi, I truly enjoyed this movie in spite of some historical inaccuracies.
If you enjoy beautiful cinema, do not miss this one.
...and the price!! Just barely a few pennies more than a cup of coffe at Starbucks.
It is in English with optional Spanish subtitles, but beware, it is a very poor translation.
