Copying Beethoven [2006] | 
| An aspiring composer of humble means 23-year-old Anna Holtz (Diane Kruger) is seeking inspiration and career advancement in the world's music capital Vienna. A student at the music conservatory she is recommended for a position at a venerated publisher and in a fortuitous turn of events orchestrates an opportunity to work beside the greatest most mercurial artist alive - Ludwig van Beethoven (Ed Harris). When the skeptical Beethoven issues an impromptu challenge Anna demonstrates her competence and musical insight. The maestro accepts Anna as his copyist beginning a remarkable relationship that will transform both of their lives. Featuring Harris' remarkable incarnation as the celebrated composer and a breakthrough performance by Kruger Copying Beethoven centers on the last years of Beethoven's life. A turbulent period in which his struggles with deafness loneliness and family trauma provided profound inspiration for arguably the greatest symphony ever written his astonishing Ninth.
