WSR Narrative Review |

Story Synopsis:
Song Without End, The Story Of Franz Liszt is the true account of the composer and pianist (British actor Dick Bogarde), a man torn between his music, the church, and the woman he loves, Princess Carolyne Sayn-Wittgenstein (French model Capucine).
LaserDisc Picture:
The picture has been recomposed at 2.28:1. Colors are fully saturated for a rich, warm and vibrant Technicolor look that is sharp and detailed. Fleshtones are a bit ex-aggregated and blacks are deep with excellent contrast for a gorgeous presentation.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The soundtrack retains the original directionalized dialogue and stereo music.
