Regpasha1 P. @Buxtehude11 Feb 26 Angela Gheorghiu further cements her place in the pantheon of the greatest singers in operatic history. I liked the juxtaposition of a recording session with an actual performance… it lends a kind of verisimilitude to the production without detracting from the essential requisites that must be employed in fulfilling Puccini’s intentions for Tosca. I managed to purchase one of the few remaining DVD’s on Amazon. Worth every cent! See more 05/17/2012 So so so so so so so GOOD! See more 01/28/2012 A good adaptation of Puccini's classic... it's not my favourite of his operas, thus, even were the film the greatest in history, I don't think I'd be able to rate it much more than this, yet this film version is enjoyable, aesthetically beautiful, and showcasts some fine acting and vocal performances. See more 04/23/2008 Une interprétation de premier ordre, même si Raimondi, très photogénique cependant, manifeste une santé vocale un peu fatiguée. Je n'aimais pas a priori l'idée d'insérer des plans filmés lors de l'enregistrement, mais il s'avère en fait que c'est une réussite: les moments de "vide dramatique" sont meublés à l'écran par l'orchestre... Gheorghiu joue magnifiquement bien, travaille chaque mot. Alagna est parfait, comme toujours. See more 01/21/2008 Really difficult to rate this, because it really can't be compared to live opera performance or "real" movies. A Great idea to do an opera DVD like this. See more 10/16/2007 This has everything an opera should have! Great passion, pain, love, beautiful people, drama and death - and very good singers! Wonderfull as an opera, but not so great as a movie. Showing clips from the recording at the ending ruined it a little. But I still loved it. See more Read all reviews
