Featured review
I'm deeply upset about this fictional dramatization on real Niccoló Paganini's life, if someone is willing to make a biographic picture, is upmost importance focusi the real facts, it wasn't happened here, he never had a manager as implied on movie, never had any romance with Jeanne de Vermont and also never got a Stradivarius as wrongly exposed here , his father was his own manager, just small details are accurate as compulsive gambler and a womanizer, it's all true, Stewart Granger has a strong similarity with real character, even the sound coming from by the fantastic violinist Yehudi Menuhin, Stewart Granger never was dubbed on playing by anyone, he is enough skilled to play in the pass on the recorded music, also his posture with the violin seems perfect, the title isn't correct neither, The Magic Bow sounds that the violin was the major movie's star, instead the great virtuous Italian Paganini regarded the best and skillful violinist of all time, applying news techniques on violin, aside the fabulous performance of Stewart Granger and Cecil Parker and the marvelous Paganini's music worthwhile to see this picture!!
