Valuable mostly as an early Lollobrigida film.......2004-12-30

This movie is not really much as a biography of Enrico Caruso; viewers looking for a biopic might be better advised to seek out the one with Mario Lanza and Ann Blyth. Its main interest lies in the fact that it's one of Gina Lollobrigida's earlier performances; she's stunning, as always, as the love interest.

Too Sketchy and Unrealistic.......2003-05-23

A sketchy biography only of this greatest tenor of all times.

It began with the boy singing in the street. He also sang in the church choir too etc. It seems that it was shot somewhere in a small village in Tuscany with some reality.

Only Caruso's funeral was true. But the DVD comes with quite a bonus of a few of Caruso's arias. The sound as a whole is not bad at all. But there is not much drama in the movie, and as a whole, it isn't really a success. If you have one or two of this master's CD, you might as well avoid it.

Not what I thought.......2002-10-25

If you are looking for a documentary - this isn't it. If you thought to find an anthology of the master's recordings - you won't find it here. The DVD consists of an early Italian movie about Caruso's childhood and early career. Don't get me wrong: It is not a bad movie, just dated and instead of English subtitles, the original Italian was dubbed (badly) with English voices. There are a few pages of Biography, and a few recordings from 1910. All in all, I think that whoever produced this DVD could have easily done a much better job!
