Behind The Candelabra
A name synonymous with showmanship, extravagance and candelabras, Liberace was a world-renowned performer with a flair that endeared him to his audiences and created a loyal fan base spanning his 40-year career.
Liberace lived lavishly and embraced a lifestyle of excess both on and off stage. In summer 1977, handsome young stranger Scott Thorson walked into his dressing room and, despite their age difference and seemingly different worlds, the two embarked on a secretive five-year love affair.
Critic Reviews:
- " The grotesquely gripping performances of Douglas and Damon are wonders to behold here. " – Leigh Paatsch
- " Yes. It is fabulous. No other word for it, unless that word is “glorious.” " – Deborah Ross
- " Certainly an interesting film well played and a cautionary tale for those seeking fame and fortune or it's off cuts. " – Rosalynn Try-Hane
