In front of him, there was nothing but silence. Because he is deaf.

This is a movie that cannot be evaluated. Because the protagonist reproduced in the movie is already a miracle.

Human beings born in the universe are as small as billions of shining stars. But at the moment it shines, it is extremely great. Just as at the end of the film, with the accompaniment of Ode to Joy, the young Beethoven escaped his father's whipping and lay down in the clear pool in the gloomy woods, surrounded by stars in the sky reflecting in the pool. At that moment, the young man seemed to be in the center of the universe, and at this moment, the universe in the young man's heart was growing crazily. It expanded, it exploded, and it would spin and fly in the orbit of fate. Until one day goes out of orbit and disappears out of the universe, it can no longer be grasped.

What is music and what it can do.

Food can save us from hunger, houses can shelter us from cold and dampness, performance can satisfy our anxious desires, and love can fill our empty souls. Music brings the listener straight into the universe of the composer's brain. It can travel through time and space, hitting the depths of people's souls, it awakens memories, it extracts nutrients from sleepy lives, and bursts out dizzying colors. At that time, you are no longer yourself, you are just a tiny star in the universe he created.

A will, a love letter, a huge misunderstanding, a deep love, an abandoned child, a madman, a man, a rainy night, a great musician, a noble soul, a life driven by curiosity Crossing... It all ended on a white marble tombstone with his name engraved in solemn fonts.

In front of him, there was nothing but silence. Because he is deaf.

    The emotional history of Beethoven, which was pieced together in the Rashomon style, also arranged a bloody passing ending, pain created art, and the climax was slightly weak. The background music is all over the film, and in some places it seems too noisy. There is something wrong with Oldman playing Beethoven. I can’t say why...

    I have nothing else to say about this story. . The life of a genius is really beyond the comprehension of ordinary people like me. . Weird soundtrack. . . But the scene of Ode to Joy with the stars in the sky is very good~~

Immortal Beloved quotes

  • Ludwig van Beethoven: [startled to discover he has been tricked into playing piano for people observing him behind the wall] It is terrible, terrible for you to rob me in this way of my most treasured feelings!

  • Ludwig van Beethoven: [sitting secluded in a darkened corner, Miss Guicciardi does not notice him at first] Hello.

    Giulietta Guicciardi: [startled, she doesn't realize who she is speaking to] Oh... I didn't see you. I have to go back.

    [she turns to leave]

    Ludwig van Beethoven: [he gets up] Oh... you are leaving me to go back to that ass who plays like a kitchen maid, all clipped and staccato.

    Giulietta Guicciardi: This music is beautiful.

    Ludwig van Beethoven: You must be Giulia Guicciardi. I hear there's quite a contest for your charms.

    Giulietta Guicciardi: Sir you're rude and offensive. I'm leaving.

    [she begins to walk away]

    Ludwig van Beethoven: [calling after her] Do you play the piano?

    Giulietta Guicciardi: [she stops] What?

    Ludwig van Beethoven: I intend to be your teacher. I will call for you tomorrow at 10:00.

    Giulietta Guicciardi: [laughs as she walks away] You will be barred from the house.
