"Outrageous entertainer and flamboyant pianist whose stage and television career spanned 40 years, Liberace lived lavishly and embraced a lifestyle of excess. In the summer of 1977 handsome young Scott Thorson walked into his dressing room and, despite their age difference and seemingly different worlds, the two embarked on a secretive five-year love affair. Behind the Candelabra' captures the essence of Liberace's appeal while taking a behind-the-scenes look at their tempestuous relationship. The film also features an all-star supporting cast that includes Dan Aykroyd, Scott Bakula, And Debbie Reynolds."--Container.
