Lisztomania review credits Russell with outrageous biography

The film Lisztomania directed by Ken Russell airs at Stage 4 starring Roger Daltry Paul Nicholas Sara Kes telman and Ringo Starr and released by Warner Bros. It compares to Tommy with a similar rock infused life of Franz Liszt and features Wagner as a monster villain while Rome scene with the pope closes the spoof. The review notes Daltry lacks acting maturity and the film aims for zany satire rather than strong music.
