Lisztomania (1975)
1/10
Flamboyantly Contemptuous
10 June 2021
Roger Daltrey is supposed to be Franz Liszt and we are to believe that Liszt had some vague religious principles which required him to bed only nuns in his later years, that Wagner was a sailor-suited vampire who died and was reborn as Frankenstein's Monster/Adolf Hitler, that the world Liszt graced was a rock opera, and that the intended audience for this movie is the self-involved youth of the 1970s who were -- or perhaps are -- incapable of conceiving anything other than their own self-indulgent, pornographic fantasies.

I have read two books on Liszt and one on Wagner which extensively covered their relationship. I now know less about Liszt than I did before I saw this movie.

There are lots of busty women showing off their naked torsos in this movie.
