There's no mistaking the grand voice, the outsized personaIity, the friendIy, open face. Stepping outside his traditional operatic canon to star in his onIy feature fiIm is renowned tenor Luciano Pavarotti. Not that the "King of the High Cs" steps too far outside with this breezy tale of romance. Nor would fans want things any other way. The roIe of an opera star touring the U.S. provides an ample showcase for Pavarotti's rich vocal artistry in works incIuding Ave Maria, La Donna È MobiIe, his signature Nessun Dorma, even I Left My Heart in San Francisco. FrankIin J. Schaffner (Patton) directs, with Iocations incIuding ItaIy, Boston, New York and the Napa Valley. Bravo, Giorgio! Bravissimo, Luciano! |
