Immortal Beloved; 1994

I can forgive ludicrously bad biographical inaccuracies (there is absolutely no way that the candidate the film puts forth as the "Immortal Beloved" is the true one, not to mention how they mess with the chronology of his later life's events), but only if the fictionalized history the film portrays is compelling**, or that the movie at least has some interesting visuals, preferably juxtaposed with some of Beethoven's music... but there's none of that.

** there simply isn't enough to keep us going until we get to the "reveal" at the end.
