Movie Reviews of Gounod - Rom?o et Juliette / Alagna ? Gheorghiu ? Anton Guadagno

Movie Review: Learn to enjoy opera
Summary: 4 Stars

If I taught English lit in high school, I would use this production as an example of the breadth of scope available to writers. Shakespeares best story turned into a costume romance with music. It doesn't hurt that both stars are easy to look at, and that the scenery is beautiful. That they cut out some very beautiful parts (as well as some boring ones, ie dance music for 20 minutes) is a shame. That they get it done in just over an hour, keeping the bones of the story and the opera intact makes it a useful tool to expose people to opera as a concept. It would be great if someone did this with Don Gionanni!
