Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A mixed bag
Domingo sings beautifully, Stratas less so but looks and acts the part. The biggest problem is there are so many cuts and shortened arias that you could almost call this "extended highlights". And Zeferelli over-produces, particularly with camera work. If you want a movie version get Anna Moffo's of over 30 years ago. Now there was a Violetta!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - wonderful production
Verdi - La Traviata / Levine, Stratas, DomingoI saw this production in 1986 and I was so impressed with this performance that I always want to have this particular version of la Traviata. I saw this DVD when I received this one a couple of weeks ago and my opinion didn't change.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Stratas/Domingo La Traviata
Saw it years ago when it first came out and it seems to have improved over time....as for Stratas:
'Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety'



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The definitive Traviata production
You won't find a better one. Not just a filming of a stage production but a sumptuous movie rendition. Incredible staging and lighting with terrific casting. Domingo in his prime, and Stratas is one of the leading singing actresses of her generation.

Only minor downside is the subtitles include the hearing impaired queues, but if/once you know the story, just turn them off.
