It's all terribly Masterpiece Theatre, slow and beautiful, only with more seduction scenes. The music, the costumes and the breathtaking cinematography (courtesy of Vittorio Storaro) will keep you happily engaged. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

12/16/2015 Thankfully it isn't a pure opera. Still, it isn't delicate enough in narrative/writing. See more 01/13/2011 A wonderful watch full of exquisite music and shows a side of Mozart's life that isn't so commonly known about See more 01/10/2011 Otra recomendación para melómanos. Aunque había leído sobre la vida aventurera de Da Ponte, no había atado cabos. Esta película fue una sorpresa muy agradable. See more 01/07/2011 I became a bit interested in opera for the first time in my life through this film!!! See more 11/20/2010 Only if you are seriously into Opera... and cheesy acting See more 05/14/2010 Un film envoûtant, rencontre de trois personnages charismatiques(Lorenzo da Ponte, Mozart et Casanova) créant une oeuvre grandiose. Des acteurs excellents, de la romance, une belle mise en scène, multilingue et pleine d'idées, tout ça sur fond d'une superbe musique! Du grand art! See more Read all reviews
