Les Contes D'Hoffman
PostedJanuary 7, 2010

from New York, NY
When you start with a wonderful opera and a first-rate cast, it's hard to go wrong, and this was a wonderful screening of a particularly fascinating production.
But the approach often used film characteristics rather than stage ones. There were numerous close-ups that you don't get in the opera house, which were welcome to watch cast members in a way virtually impossible in the opera house But the extent to which this was carried was too much at the expense of being able to watch the entire stage. That's the pleasure of a live performance at the opera house with all the very interesting details one sees on the entire stage.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
