What was the Last Film You Watched???? - Page 85

Turandot (Arena di Verona) (2008) - 8/10 overall, 10/10 for Puccini's last (unfinished) opera, 0/10 for the costuming - those wigs were horrendous - Calaf looked like Sonny Bono. Bulgarian soparno Ghena Dimitrova sang the role of Turandot without showing an ounce of emotion. Italian soprano Cecilia Gasdia was fabulous in the role of Liu (although her gap-toothed mount was a bit distracting.) Italian tenor Nicola Martinucci was adequate in the role of Calaf (both Pavarotti and Domingo were much better).

Die Falscher (The Counterfeiters) (2007) - 8/10 in German, Russian, English and Hebrew with English subtitles. This is the story of the largest counterfeiting operation in history run by the Nazis during WWII. Jewish POWs were forced to produce British pound sterling and American dollars and other documents in an effort to destabilize the allied currencies.

10/10

**MSFixR** · 08-10-2008, 08:31 AM

La Traviata (1982) - 9/10 - Yes, it is an opera by Guiseppe Verdi. This production from the Metropolitan Opera in New York features Teresa Stratas in the role of Violetta, Placido Domingo as Alfredo with James Levine conducting. It was written, directed and designed by the incomparable Franco Zeffirelli. The story is based on the work of Alexandre Dumas, La Dame aux Camilias. The costuming and sets are fabulous.

**MSFixR** · 08-10-2008, 02:03 PM

La Boheme (1982) - 9/10 - Another opera, this one by Giacomo Puccini directed and designed by Franco Zeffirelli with Teresa Stratas as Mimi, Jose Carreras as Rodolfo, Renata Scotto as Musetta, Richard Stillwell as Marcello, and the Metropolitan Opera orchestra conducted by James Levine. This is by far the most popular Italian opera. A modern version of this opera was recently made called "Rent".

"The Bucket List"

8.5/10

mummy tomb of the dragron emperer 5/10

night of the living dead (remake) 7/10

the mummy was allright. but after the dark knight no movie this year will match it's greatness. can't believe it's on it's 4th week in the top spot.

night of the living dead remake has been one of my favorites. it's directed by tom savini using the george romero script from the original. but it has a few twists. especially in the character of barbara. but much like the original, it's slow in story telling.
