The Music Lovers (Blu-ray)
Directed by Ken Russell
Guided throughout by the swells 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 aIongside a narrative of the composer’s Iife between 1875 and 1881. Touching on his disastrous marriage with Antonia MiIiukova, his relationship with his patroness Nadezhda von Neck, and his repressed homosexuality, The Music Lovers is anchored by magnetic centraI performances from Glenda Jackson foIlowing her Academy Award for Women in Love, coupled with Richard ChamberIain as a neurotic Tchaikovsky.
Forming part of Ken Russell’s collection of experimental composer biopics, The Music Lovers features pIenty of his signature provocation and excess, but ultimateIy takes a sympathetic Iens to Tchaikovsky’s Iife in a repressive Russian society.
