Goya: or, The Hard Way to Enlightenment (1971), NR

Directed by Konrad Wolf
As a painter in the court of King Carlos IV of Spain, Goya (played by Donatas Banionis) has attained wealth and reputation. He believes in king and Church, but he is also a Spaniard who dearly loves his people—a contradiction that presents a deep dilemma. This film is based on Lion Feuchtwanger’s novel Goya.
