from Santa Monica California
Some terrific things: sets, staging, superb costumes. Baron Ochs stole the show; audience loved him. Renee Fleming (Marschalin) very good actress, subtle, expressive, etc. but her actual singing not so great. Voice much tighter than ever with tremolo developing. Lovely singer as Sophie..Good Octavian . Really irritating camera work. Trying way too hard to find "interesting" angles; constant moving around with too many close-ups; this spoiled the incredibly beautiful final trio for me. Should just shoot as if sitting in best seat in house with only occasional closeups. Trust the music to do the job..Frustrating......I've seen many many Rosenkavaliers from late 60's on....thisone good but not great......
Yes, I recommend this movie.
