Un grand Amour de Beethoven 1936

The deaf of Beethoven, Composing Symphony No.6 "Pastoral"

Dir. Abel Gance
Harry Baur plays Ludwig van Beethoven

When Beethoven loses Juliette, he moves to the mill at Heiligenstadt; realizing he's becoming deaf, profound depression sets in.

He rejects suicide, holding on to remembered sound and to his work, a dedication assisted by Thérèse and others.
