Movie Reviews of Jules Massenet: Manon
Movie Review: If Marilyn Monroe could only Sing!
Summary: 5 Stars
This Manon is terrific in every way. Nicely staged, with color and action, despite simple sets. Well sung all around. Netrebko steals the show with her incredibly glamorous beauty and superb singing. The days of the fat soprano are farther and farther behind us. Only when opera is a great show on top of the inspired music, superb singing, and exciting spectacle, will it fascinate the great potential audience out there.
This DVD is a fine step in that direction.
Movie Review: Always the same with Netrebko
Summary: 5 Stars
Anything this phenomenon sings is exquisite to listen to. I am an opera lover for 70 years and have never heard anything like this. She is even more enjoyable to see, and if it could get any better, it does when paired with Rolando Villazon. What a shame they do not do more recordings together. Can't help but wonder what behind-the-scenes reason there might be.Movie Review: Massenet <Manon is a lyrical triumph and a thrill that haunts you well after you have been listening to the actual dvd
Summary: 5 Stars
Long after watching the opera your mind is haunted by the beautiful music. Rolando Villazon's interpretation is what I have dreamed about all my life. He is the lyrics, and feels what the artist Massenet must have wanted to express when he created the opera. French music is a new high for me!Movie Review: Hepburn to Monroe
Summary: 5 Stars
And yet another treat for the eyes and ears from this "dream team" The concept is brilliant, acting is believable, and the singing is glorious. Cannot wait fot the upcoming Boheme movie!
Movie Review: magnificent
Summary: 5 Stars
