I was waiting for the Met to bring back this opera/production. I was at the Met on Saturday to see this broadcast live. The music was beautiful. I love the 3rd act love duet. The production was beautiful. It did not look or feel like it was over 30 yrs old. I do have 2 criticisms: One; I felt sometimes the Met orchestra was too loud and overpowered the singers. And two; I also felt that Marcello Giordano's singing sounded strained. I did not hear or feel very much emotion from him. He looked and sounded stiff. Eva-Marie Westbroek..Robert Brubaker and Mark Delavan were better. If you want to see and hear this opera the way it should be sung and acted; buy and watch the Met's DVD of this production starring Renata Scotto and Placidio Domingo.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

When I arrived at the theater it was half empty--and it stayed that way until I left. By comparison I noticed that the Met was full. The Met audience gave it a wonderful ovation as did we. This is not an often-performed opera (don't know why) and I suppose many people did not think it worth their time.
My opinion--a great afternoon at the opera. The production was wonderful, the music was beautiful and the soprano was a revelation. No one left early at the end as they usually do. I found myself getting choked up during the ovations. BRAVO.
We saw a preview of next season's HD productions--fantastic lineup. I hope I will be there.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.
