Spectacular fluff
A froth of beautiful music, MGM direction and a very silly story. Great fun when you are in the right mood. Unfortunately another nail in the coffin of Louise Rainer's brief career. If you like high coloratura voices you should love the singing of Militzia Korjus. Very brief film career, one American film. Ferdinand Gravet is not much of a romantic lead. Huge...

Great Musical Biography....
...of course not real Biography, contains some fictional scenes like to composing of the "Vienna Tales...". Miliza Korjus is just fantastic with a incredible singing voice.

This review is from: The Great Waltz (Collector's edition Russian release) (DVD)
...of course not real Biography, contains some fictional scenes like to composing of the "Vienna Tales...".Miliza Korjus is just fantastic with a incredible singing voice. Luise Rainer acting also great. The Camera-Work / ball scene is amazing and inspired later a scene for "Dallas" in a episode where is playing in Vienna and J.R. and Bobby are dancing at the ball. Sadly this movie isn't released yet official by MGM or Warner Bros. on DVD. This Russian DVD contains english soundtrack but no subtitles. The Picture quality isn't the best but ok and watchable. Fazit: movie is great, DVD is just ok - could be done better

Splendid biography!,
By Hiram Gomez Pardo (Valencia, Venezuela) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Great Waltz (Collector's edition Russian release) (DVD)
Julien Duvivier played hard with this biography of the legend of Waltz: Johann Strauss. A film without age; for all music lovers of the most popular genre in what classical music concerns. Luise Rainer is perfect in her role.
