Posted: 5/15/07 at 9:04amIve seen the trailers, and they are exactly what I've always imagined a good film version should be. I'm terribly excited about this movie, and I certainly hope it makes it here

It seems rather up in the air as to whether it'll make it to the US, but I can't see why PBS or Bravo can't pick it up or something.

Posted: 5/15/07 at 1:58pmI haven't seen the preview, but it's my favorite opera, and I love the Ingmar Bergman film version of it as well. The best filmed opera though is Franco Zefferelli's La Traviata with Teresa Stratas and Placido Domingo.

Posted: 5/15/07 at 2:54pmI had no idea this was being made. I love the Magic Flute though; I'm thinking of seeing it at the Met next season.

Posted: 5/15/07 at 3:25pmMy problem is that I can't stand Kenneth Branaugh's directing...
