A delicious Elixir
by TheLittleSongbird2012-06-08
9/10

"L'Elixir D'Amore is one of my favourite Donizettis, that is alongside Lucia Di Lammermoor and La Fille Du Regiment. And this is a delicious film version, not my absolute favourite version(the 1967 version with Scotto, Bergonzi, Taddei and Cava) but very close. I would have perhaps preferred sharper picture quality, there were times when the lip sync seemed to be I think behind the voices and the sound could have been less fuzzy in places, though this is me being fussy. I did like the production values, the costumes are sumptuous and the sets never look cheap. Like the opera should be..."
