User Comments for: Tchaikovsky’s Wife

Like Beef Stroganov pizza: it's super heavy and not easy to digest but you'd be wrong if you said it wasn't good.

Director Kirill Serebrennikov is so good that even the movies of his that I don't like (Petrov's Flu) are admittedly well-made, and the movies of his that I do like (Leto) are amazing.

Fortunately, Tchaikovsky's Wife falls into the second category. This mostly autobiographical film about Tchaikovsky's wife uses her passion / obsession with him as a lens through which to explore his homosexuality (interestingly, there is a great deal of full frontal male nudity in the film, and practically no female nudity).

Clocking in at nearly 2½ hours, Tchaikovsky's Wife is very dense, but the wonderful acting and sharp directing make the movie much easier to swallow.
