The Great Awakening is a 1941 American historical musical drama film starring Alan Curtis, Ilona Massey, and Billy Gilbert. Directed by Reinhold Schünzel, the film was produced by Gloria Pictures Corporation, and released by United Artists. Miklós Rózsa was responsible for the musical direction, though he later expunged the title from his filmography, because he considered it a travesty of the great composer's life story.
The film is a biopic covering part of the life of Austrian composer Franz Schubert flees from Vienna. It is sometimes known by the alternative titles New Wine (original title), One Romantic Night (USA reissue title) or Schubert, the Melody Master, was the last directed by Schünzel who was an exile from Nazi Germany.
SYNOPSIS
The romantic story of Franz Schubert 's fight for recognition of his music. Fleeing Austria, he arouses passion strongly akin to mother love in a beautiful bucolic girl, who loves him to much to sacrifice genius on the altar of marriage.
The story of "New Wine" spotlights the youthful days of Franz Schubert, when his wonderful music had not yet attracted the plaudits of the world. It pictures the days when the young composer was forced to flee to Austria and there meets Anna, a beautiful girl who is in charge of a ranch belonging to a giddy countess. Anna falls in love with Franz and realizes that his work has the stamp of immortality. How they return to Vienna and seek out the great Beethoven for help and how their stirring romance comes to a strange finish provides "New Wine" with all the ingredients of a thrilling motion picture.
Austrian composer Franz Schubert flees from Vienna to avoid conscription, ending up in Hungary where he falls in love.
