尚.尼古拉斯哥导演的音乐气息浓厚的爱情悲剧,琼.克劳福德与约翰.歌菲尔德在片中均有精彩演出。片中多段精彩的小提琴演奏由大师艾萨克史坦恩幕后操刀,对全片的哀怨气氛增色不少。 德国作曲家、指挥家韦克斯曼1947年为美国电影《银海香魂》编写了《卡门幻想曲》,这部作品充满了吉卜赛的风格和绚丽的色彩,并对演奏技巧要求极高,该片也获得了1947年奥斯卡最佳音乐奖提名。Paul Boray comes from a working class background. He has been interested in the violin since he was a child, which his father disliked since he felt it a waste of money, but which his mother supported. Into his adult life, Paul wants to become a concert violinist, and although he shows talent, he does not have the right connections to make it into the concert performance world, much like his longtime friend, virtuoso pianist Sid Jeffers, and cellist Gina Romney, both who, like Paul, train with the National Institute Orchestra. Gina and Paul have a connection with each other, Gina who confesses her love for him. While performing at a party with Sid, Paul meets Helen and Victor Wright, their hosts. Victor is a perceptive but self-admittedly weak man, while his wife Helen is strong minded but insecure which manifests itself as neurosis. She constantly tries to forget about her unhappy life by excessive alcohol consumption. Helen becomes Paul's benefactress, which ultimately results in a successful concert career for Paul. But the two also fall in love, a destructive love against the wishes of Paul's mother and Gina. That love may not only destroy Paul's concert career, but their lives as well.
