I don't know Rachmaninoff other than from the movie Shine. Although maybe not a "great" movie, when I saw it I had the same reaction this IMDb reviewer had:
"When I originally saw this film in the mid-90's, I was absolutely devastated throughout the first forty-five minutes. So much so, I was pretty much uncontrollably weeping, much to the chagrin of the friend I went with."
I'd gone with my gf at the time and it was a very quiet evening after. I don't know why it affected me so. I've never watched it again, mainly because I figure my first reaction will be the most powerful so I'm going to leave it at that.
