KINSKI PAGANINI coming from MYA in a 2 disc special edition. (not to be confused with Luigi Cozzi's dreadful PAGANINI HORROR)



Quote:
Witness the life and times of madman and genius violinist Niccolò Paganini. Haunted by the demons of lust and beauty, Paganini pursues his ideal of artistic creation while challenging the moral boundaries of his era. Ridiculed and feared, suspected to be a devil worshipper and still envied for his miraculous musical skills, Paganini created some of the most complex and astonishing music ever. And yet, for all his visionary art, the master of demonic violin playing was considered no more than a freak to be pitied. But his genius still lives today. Just as strong as Klaus Kinski’s final masterpiece.

Directed by Klaus Kinski at the most rabid heights of his feverish hallucinatory creative power, Paganini is one of the most extreme biopic ever committed to the screen. Mixing together Werner Herzog, Ken Russell and Federico Fellini, Kinski pulls off his artistic testament in a way no director has dared before. Sex, violence, incredible complex shots and gorgeous women make Paganini a one of a kind film. Culled together from only the best preserved original materials, this special edition features both the theatrical cut and the director’s cut that Klaus Kinski so desperately tried to preserve until his very last days.
