 Rating:  - beware of flawed dvd!I'm sorry to say that I am among those who received two flawed dvd's of this opera. The dvd's were flawed in exactly the same place in the middle of act two, just before the poker scene. What a pity, because I had forgotten just how good this production was, and I will now go to any length to get a good copy. The production is beautiful, with a terrific set and costumes, beautifully directed and conducted. The singing, for the most part is quite good too. Barabara Daniels is simply the best ...

Rating: - Great DVD, but beware of defective copiesI first bought this disc from Amazon, that copy froze at the one hour twenty minute mark, and on more than one DVD player. I then tried purchasing a copy from one of the independent sellers on Amazon, whose policy was to replace the disc one time rather than give an immediate refund, therefore I received two copies from that seller, both defective at the exact same spot.

The picture froze and eventually went to the main menu. I was not allowed to order another copy of it. Rating: - Highly recommended !I only ordered this because of the great cast as I was initially doubtful about the concept of a "western opera". I was so totally delighted by it however, that I watched it through twice in one evening. Everyone was so perfect in their roles that it would be hard to imagine Puccini being less than overjoyed in the quality of the cast. The story-line was interesting, the sets were terrific and the singing, of course, superb. Browse for similar items by category:
