This insightful look behind said candelabra is a revealing dissection of the costs of fame and decadence, and adds one more excellent performance and film to star Michael Douglas and director Steven Soderbergh's extensive lists of works.

What a beautiful film. I haven't seen a lot of movies from last year, but this one is surely to stay near the top of my list. The acting was brilliant, Douglas deserved all of the accolades that he won. Damon probably deserved them as well. The greatest surprise of the film, though, was seeing Rob Lowe with a giant mop on his head. Amazing! Everything about this film screamed excess, from the colors, acting, clothes (which were great) and their homes. I truly believed I was seeing Vegas in the late 70's and early 80's. It even touches on the AIDS epidemic which was sweeping the nation at that time and just the general lack of knowledge that the country had about the disease. This is a must see, everything about it is great!

Based on the autobiography, the film explores the relationship between Liberace and his six-year relationship with young lover Scott Thorson. This movie has outstanding acting and a good cast.
