A fine evening out

As a short person, I spend most of my time staring at the back of the head in front of me at regular opera venues. Thanks to stadium seating at the cinema I was able to see the entire show. So this was a vast improvement and much less expensive. The sets were a sumptuous treat for the eyes. The singing was wonderful. And who amongst us has not sung along on Nessun Dorma in the car or in the shower? The downside was the sound leakage from the cinema next door. Somehow the apocalypse-like explosions intruded rather than enhanced the opera experience. Still, better a few explosions than an evening of peering around someone’s head. I did encourage several friends to see the show.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
