Movie Reviews of Wiener Blut (Viennese Blood)
Movie Review: Finally--a Morbisch Production mit Subtitles!
Summary: 5 Stars
The 2004 DVD issue of Strauss's posthumous operetta was a 1994 production from the Morbisch Festival in rural eastern Austria, on the flat and reedy shores of the anti-Alpine Lake Neusiedl. It's still listed here on Amazon.com, along with a virtually identical 2006 re-issue. Neither of these previous issues has subtitles, though the production is so spectacular and the performance so flavorful that the viewer almost doesn't need them.
Now comes this completely new DVD with subtitles, another Morbisch effort from 2007, and most welcome it is. A different production this time, staged by Maximilian Schell, just as spectacular as the 1994 and possibly even better sung and acted. Tenor Rainer Trost is especially fine as the compulsively womanizing "no-account" Count. The Johann Strauss enthusiast will want to own both versions. The new one differs somewhat in musical content and focuses even more intensely on the humorous and scandalous sides of Viennese behavior and dialect.
