I read a biography of Robert Schumann (over 40 years ago) and it was an interesting story of Robert and Clara . . . but good ole Hollywood . . . they take a story of real people and "base" a movie on it. Here is a movie of three extraordinarily talented musicians and about the only thing in this movie that reminded me of them was the fact that it had characters named "Robert Schumann", "Clara Schumann" and "Johannas Brahms". It has two great actors, Paul Henreid and Katherine Hepburn, who have been in some fine movies. In this one, I don't see Robert and Clara Schumann and Johannes Brahms . . . I see Paul Henreid, Katherine Hepburn and Robert Walker running around spouting Hollywood lines. What a shame . . . they could have made a great movie about three great musicians.
