Há exatos 40 anos estreava em New York. Bom, digamos que a coroa de grande transposição de uma ópera de Mozart para o cinema ainda fica com A Flauta Mágica do Bergman, mas o Losey em segundo lugar também não é nenhuma tragédia. DVD Duplo Versátil.

Decent entertainment for Mozart lovers, with lots of caveats. It's said that Losey had never seen DG on stage--it shows. By making the Don so relentlessly evil, he cuts out the raison d'etre of the opera itself. Without just a bit of ambiguity, why not skip the opera altogether and just send the Don straight to hell? Jose Van Dam is a WONDERFUL Leporello... the rest of the cast is decent, except for the superannuated Berganza (a peasant girl?? I think not)--Zerlina is NOT a mezzo role.
