Directed by: Bernard Rose
Starring: Gary Oldman, Isabella Rossellini, Jeroen Krabbe, Johanna ter Steege
Factual error: Despite all the wonderful period instruments, particularly pianos, in this film, the sound coming out of them is that of a modern grand piano, which sounds nothing like the lighter instruments of the time.
Trivia: Countess Erdody is shown to be playing the violin which is inaccurate as she never did, and a disability (which is also not shown) prevented this. She was however a very able pianist.
