Cornel Wilde, Paul Muni and Merle Oberon: a classic line-up of ageless talent in a film that has become an evergreen to millions of music lovers. It's the true story of Frederic Chopin, towering romantic pianist and composer, frail in body but fiery in spirit. It's the story of his eternal music, of the brilliant women who inspired it, of his fight for the freedom of his beloved Poland and his tragic death in the full flower of his genius. Charles Vidor, finest of all romantic film-makers, directs.
