About this product

Product Information

Filmmaker Steven Soderbergh explores the relationship between flamboyant pianist Liberace (played by Michael Douglas) and his long-term partner, Scott Thorson (Matt Damon), in this Warner Bros. biopic based on Thorson's best-selling memoirs. An pianist with a playful flair for showmanship, Liberace was a beloved entertainer when, in the summer of 1977, he began a five-year love affair with the much-younger Thorson. Though on the surface the pair couldn't have seemed more different, the y quickly established an intimate bond that would take Thorson on a wild ride through the glamorous world of showbusiness while revealing a side of his talented older lover that few had glimpsed before. Rob Lowe, Dan Aykroyd, Scott Backula, and Debbie Reynolds co-star. A considerable hit when it premiered on HBO in May of 2013, BEHIND THE CANDELABRA impressed at the 2013 Emmy Awards by taking home trophies for Best Mini-Series or TV Movie, Best Actor in a Mini-Series or TV Movie (Michael Douglas), and Best Directing, Mini-Series or TV Movie.

    Remarkable movie

    I watched Liberace Behind the Music and this movie. This movie is just as good as Behind the Music except it didn't have the sex scenes or Foul Language like this movie did. In my Opinion both Michael and Matt was extremely outstanding playing their roles as Liberace and Scott. I truly love and cherish this movie, it definitely keeper.

  • The life of Liberace

    It was interesting and sad at the same time. I thought Liberace was much older. It’s sad the life he led aside from his talent and fame.

  • this is one gutsy performance by Matt and Michael Douglas

    Whoa ! . . I tip my hat to Matt ; letting himself be kissed by Michael Douglas, who plays the Queen. . . . . . and SNL who in my estimation was first with male-on-male kissing scenes on commercial TV !

  • Behind the Candelabra DVD

    Interesting. I got to meet Lee in person in 1982 at the Fox in Atlanta. He was so nice. It was a private relaxing after performance visit. He took off his piano ring and let me try it on! A highlight in my life!
