NOTES Life of Beethoven finely acted with great backgrounds
His deafness shown to come on all of a sudden while he is playing at a concert. Later his deafness is ignored in the film.
Beethoven is portrayed as not a very nice person. He fights with his brother, takes his brother's child. The film is concerned more with his love life than his composition.
