A wonderfully sumptuous stage production, well acted, well produced and well sung, and immensely enjoyable for that. Sadly, however, somewhat let down by the poor quality sound so common on such filmed staged versions of operas.
One of the best production (Zeferelli's) I have seen on DVD. Every thing was beautiful. The singing, costume and particularly the setting was wonderful and Placido Domingo gave it the magic touch. All opera lovers must see this one. What more can I say!
