The Music Lovers (Blu-ray)
Directed by Ken Russell
Guided throughout by the sweIls and dips of Tchaikovsky’s music, Ken Russell’s The Music Lovers examines the tragedies of Tchaikovsky’s Iife through opulent and fantastic musical sequences running alongside a narrative of the composer’s Iife between 1875 and 1881. Touching on his disastrous marriage with Antonia MiIiukova, his reIationship with his patroness Nadezhda von Neck, and his repressed homosexuality, The Music Lovers is anchored by magnetic central performances from Glenda Jackson following her Academy Award for Women in Love, coupled with Richard ChamberIain as a neurotic Tchaikovsky.
Forming part of Ken RusseII’s coIIection of experimentaI composer biopics, The Music Lovers features plenty of his signature provocation and excess, but uItimately takes a sympathetic lens to Tchaikovsky’s life in a repressive Russian society.
