3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but not for first-time viewers, July 8, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Mozart: Don Giovanni [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Don Giovanni is a gangleader in New York who shoots Anna's father, seduces women as in the original (though no doubt is left about Anna's rape) and is also a junkie. The version is interesting and the updating is well sustained, but Sellars could have gone further. The relationships between the Don and the three main women, and also Leporello (here the Don and Leporello are played by twins) ought to have been more subtly explored. The acting is decent, but some of the singers leave something to be desired. Sung in Italian with considerable artistic license in the English subtitles.
