Movie Reviews of Saint Francois d'Assise [DVD Video]

Movie Review: Word of Warning
Summary: 5 Stars

I also will give this production the full 5 stars. It is an excellent production in all respects; and has been fully described in other reviews.

However... T. C. wrote: "This is a powerful rendition of a great opera, but it takes a lot of concentration and patience to enjoy it. Highly recommended for those who like this kind of music." That just about sums it up from my point of view. I bought it because I am always trying to expand my experience and knowledge of opera. But this work feels as if it goes on as long as Messiaen took to write it. Comparatively it makes the longeur bits of "Die Meistersinger" seem to be written by Rossini. I am not saying that I regret having bought it, despite the price; but I would like to emphasise that it is not everybody's cup of tea.
