Continuity mistake: After Beethoven pulls his nephew out of the tavern and yells that he is worthless, Beethoven is seen doubling over in pain. When the shot cuts to Karl, Beethoven is in the background, standing up straight, and doubles over again.
Immortal Beloved (1994)
1 continuity mistake
Directed by: Bernard Rose
Starring: Gary Oldman, Isabella Rossellini, Jeroen Krabbe, Johanna ter Steege
Factual error: When the so called "Immortal Beloved" visits Beethoven's grave at the end of the film, it is an 8 foot obelisk, but the original grave was about 2 feet tall, and on the other side of Vienna, in a different cemetery. Beethoven was exhumed in the 1880's and moved to his current location with the 8 foot obelisk, along with Schubert. The woman is visiting a grave which was built 30 years after she died.
Anton Felix Schindler: There can be no peace without the truth.
Trivia: Countess Erdody is shown to be playing the violin which is inaccurate as she never did, and a disability (which is also not shown) prevented this. She was however a very able pianist.
