1963年，肯·拉塞尔(《恋爱中的女人》《马勒传》)执导音乐电视纪录片，荣获当年全英剧作家协会最佳纪录片剧本奖。导演以此片打破了BBC纪录片的惯有模式，首次尝试了在非虚构类影片中采用演员表演的方式。前提是这些演员仅仅是模特，而不能出声。此片预示了肯·拉塞尔之后一系列音乐家纪录片的风格脉络。导演在02年重新翻拍了埃尔加纪录片《Fantasy of a Composer on a Bicycle》，足见他对此题材的钟爱。
BBC出品.记录英国最著名作曲家爱德华·威廉(Elgar, Edward William 1857-1934)生平。父为伍斯特的音乐书商及管风琴师。埃尔加未受正规音乐教育,但学习过管风琴、小提琴和大管.他有志成为专业小提琴独奏家,在伦敦从阿道夫·波利策上过几次课,但后来放弃了这一想法。他作为浪漫派作曲家终身不渝,虽然成熟时期茂盛的风华凝聚为老年人的深思和怀旧。他喜爱色彩变化,对乐队的驾双在当时无出其右.作品的充沛感情驳斥了某些人认为英国音乐应当稳重、含蓄的看法。但对更多的人来说,他那丰富的人道主义精神犹如新的觉醒.他所创造的风格和音乐语言极为个性化,赢得了"埃尔加式"的美称。

Ken Russell's Most Unusual Film
It is hard to believe that Ken Russell was able to get this one "green-lighted" for release by a major American distributer as it is quite simply one of the strangest films to ever grace a screen! Russell, ever the visionary, takes the not so off-target view that Franz Liszt the pop star of his day and then offers viewers a comic book version of the composer's life and relationship with several infamous women and, most importantly, Richard Wagner. This film must be seen to be believed! And is a definite must-see for all Russell fans. It will also be appreciated by Roger Daltrey fans as this one captures Daltrey in his prime! Interesting musical work by Rick Wakeman and great set designs. It would be so cool to see this on DVD with director commentary! ...Maybe some day.

英国影史重量级争议导演肯·拉塞尔的争议作品
叙述黑白片时代影坛奇美男子的同志题材片
肯·拉塞尔的作品常惹受争议，这部牵涉同恋情结叙述黑白电影时代‘万人迷’一生的作品也一样。鲁道夫·范伦铁诺被推崇为默片时代的最伟大银幕情人，以饰演具有异国风情的沙漠酋长享誉。俄国芭蕾舞巨星纽瑞耶夫被英国鬼才导演肯·拉塞尔相中，在本片诠释这位影坛奇男子，气质上犹得其神韵。全片重点放在这名俊男跟诸多美女的风流韵事上，以不少赤裸相见的镜头表现其情人本色。而观众也可以看到范伦铁诺生前主演一些名作的片段，并窃探到默片时代的一些拍电影内幕。
