Admin comments
The movie appeals to opera enthusiasts and fans of melodramatic romance. The film is primarily a showcase for Beniamino Gigli, one of the greatest tenors of the 20th century. It features 11 musical selections, including a “heart-wringing” rendition of the title song and scenes from Verdi’s La Traviata and Puccini’s La Bohème.
