"If there ever was an artist who made opera reachable to anyone was Mario Lanza. His films made opera familiar to those people in countries not having an opera tradition. I can be a witness to that from the Dominican Republic of the 1950's. This video shows Lanza and his life. When a supermega star like Placido Domingo decides to become the voice of this project then you should realize the greatness of Lanza. I read a book on the life of Jussi Bjorling and is interesting to read about the friendship and respect this other megastar had for Lanza. This video is a must for the new generation of opera lovers or curious so they know who was the generator of opera as a more popular art form years before the three tenors. Juan Mansfield"
"Nothing really technical to say about these movies. If you love old films with their simple plot, and the sensational singing voice of Mario Lanza, then don't think twice about getting these rare collectibles. The film is exceptionally restored with vivid colors and crisp sound. If you like it, buy it!"
