Title: Good voices
Product review: I gave it an extra star because it was interesting and mildly (very mildly) pleasant. This is the most boring thing I've ever sat though, and I only watched an hour and 20 minutes of it. To hell with it. I bet it was influenced by Wagner, I read that Verdi was, more's the pity. (Besides being an anti-Semitic homophobic megalomaniac who couldn't write good music, Wagner was a cad and an idiot.) In an hour and 20 minutes, there were only 2 tunes, one of which (what one reviewer called the veil song) I didn't even like. I have the Italian version on CD and thought I liked it (so what happened?), I only bought this (and wasted a ransom) because I wanted to see it enacted and I wanted to know the story. I should have read the libretto. This thing just goes drearily on eternally with nothing but plot to keep your interest or entertain you. Maybe when I read the story (which I'll do while I decide what to do with this DVD) I'll find out why Carlos and Rodrigue both needed shaves.
