.... that I can't recall the title of and it driving me mad !!!
Does this sound familiar to anyone ?
The movie is about a piano player prodigy who as a child was not allowed to play a certian piece becasue it was considered "too intense" and he was not yet mature enough to play it. When he does perform it in his late teens he goes crazy and dissapears for decades and later shows up as a homeless bum and never realizes his potential as a concert pianist .... or something like that .... and I believe this was based on a true story.
Can anyone tell me what the hell this movie is ?
