Review of Behind the Candelabra (2013) by Rui B — 10 Jun 2013

Really quite pedestrian telling of a story that was probably very shocking at the time. It tells the Liberace story from the point of view of someone who seemed to have quite a dull perspective on it and we are no longer shocked by such things.

For younger people who don't remember Liberace the movie fails dismally at recreating the glitz, glamour and bravura playing. By the time we got half way through we were willing it to end.
