I watched it last night "on demand" (fios)and enjoyed the movie very much. I don't want to provide any spoilers here. 'Just to say I liked the way the movie built up to the finale, and then finished on a very strong note...;-)

Note: I'm also a fan of the Beethoven string quartets. Maybe, quartet no. 14, the subject of this film, is not exactly my favorite pick out of the 16 that LVB wrote. Probably, I'd pick from his middle and early period first. Others might hear it differently. Nonetheless, this should be an interesting view for anyone who likes classical music and perhaps wouldn't mind to looking into the private lives of the fictional characters who in this movie perform it.
