like another reviewer and i really want to like this movie . i go with my father who be the big lover and booster of classical music but neither of u could stand this movie . i wouldn not even call it a movie . a good description might be a record of a few chamber concert piece . a i recall and the camera never even move . rather and i just sit on a tripod for the entirety of each piece . the only attempt at dramatic effect be at the very end of each piece when the movie would cut to tree wave in the wind or little wavelet lap at a beach . i be sure the director would have prefer to have use footage of some really big crashing wave but the best he could find be a few inch high at some nearby lake and and again use a stationary camera . truly pathetic . i can not imagine how anyone could justify rating this movie high than a five . when we walk out and my father and i be completely mystify a to how it be possible to make such a bad movie . i do not know of of any good movie about bach . the world really do need one and but just because it doesn not exist be not a reason to see this one . someone will make one someday . until then just keep rewatching _amadeus_ .
