So, 'The Death of a Composer: Rosa' is an interesting piece from '99. It's kind of a blend of drama and music, feels almost theatrical. The libretto by Peter Greenaway really gives it this unique angle, and the music by Louis Andriessen complements it well. The story revolves around Juan Manuel de Rosa, a fictional Brazilian composer - there's something haunting about how it explores his struggles and triumphs. The pacing can be a bit slow for some, but it really builds an atmosphere that you can sink into. The practical effects aren’t over-the-top; they enhance the narrative rather than distract. Performances are strong, quite intense, making it distinct within the genre. It’s not your typical TV movie, that’s for sure.
