Worth Finding

Alas the cover above is from the Egon Schiele - Exzesse (1981) Vessely version.

Which in many ways is a far inferior version to this TV movie. I had taped this TV version when it first came out, unfortunately on beta-max. This machine has since long gone to the great recorder heaven in the sky. So I haven't seen it for years and as such an in depth review is beyond me. But, from what I can remember it was a solid story without any excess. Hopefully one day it might be recovered and re broadcast. My 10 out of 10 is purely from memory and I guess if I was to see it again the sands of time may not of been kind

Trivia
John Goldschmidt's film was written by art historian Wolfgang Fischer and featured the then unknown Austrian playwright Felix Mitterer in the lead role as Egon Schiele. Another film which unfortunately sensationalized Schiele's life 'Excess and Punishment' has nothing to do with Goldschmidt's prizewinning film which he made for ORF, ZDF and BBC.
