Wow I did not know about either of these films. I'm heading to the Mahler festival in Amsterdam in 2 weeks so this is perfect timing for me to watch, thank you!

Ken Russell’s composer films are special. (The conversion scene in Mahler is batshit.) cc @Carmen CP

So many batshit scenes in Mahler! But it’s definitely worth watching.

Surprisingly tame compared to The Music Lovers, but there are more Mahler purists than Tchaikovsky purists so it still gets the job done. The world needed more Ken Russell composer biopics.
