Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - music and trash
Glorious music and glorious robes for Liz Taylor. Butmy God what a trashy story - yes, of course the woman has to be selfless, of course she has no talent whatsoever. This is how girls were taught to be dummies....



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I really liked it...except for the violin pieces....
Don't listen to the bad reviews: This is a good movie with lessons being taught, mostly about love. Those who love classical music will love this movie more than I did. It's about a woman with two men competing for her, and she must make a very difficult decision as to which one she wants to be with. It doesn't go the way you think it will in the end, but the way it ends is the way I wanted it to end. The best man won. The music here is great, but I don't care for violins or classical music. Nevertheless, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Romance is alive and well!
I watched this film on a bad day and by the end of the movie i was feeling much better, it was lovely watching Elizabeth Taylor's character realise the mistakes she made and the music was fabulous, the film was one that Elizabeth Taylor herself said it should never have gone before a camera, but I'm so glad it did because it left a lasting impression and I would buy it in a second if it was on DVD....Acting was good, Music was good, Story Line was good, it will work for you if you are a true romantic.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beautiful Movie all around!!!
This movie demonstrates the results of a big ego and of looking out only for your own wants and needs... then the second half shows how being a selfless person can not only make others benefit, but also gets you what you want when you're genuinely selfless and giving. There is also excellent music and Elizabeth Taylors great beauty at its best to set the scene. I'ts a pity this is not on DVD. The ending is REALLY great!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Liz Taylor's Rhapsody
I love this movie. Why? The music was fantastic. Victorio Gasman and John Ericson were gorgeous. I love that they play the instruments as if they know how to play them. And Liz's beauty was unreal. Anyway I am crazy for Liz's movies from the 40's and 50's except Cat on the Hot Thin Roof and Butterfield 8 which I could not stand.
