Atom User Reviews for Cyrano de Bergerac presented by Comédie-Française
I hope you do another another event from La Comedie Francaise, perhaps "La Malade Imaginaire" by Moliere.
Total pleasure seeing such a powerful performance filmed so intimate and luscious. The interviews were wonderful and inspirational.
Compared with the MET HD operas, this was a bad production with no consideration for sound and cameras.
This play was everything! Absolutely loved it.
It was an exciting production with powerful acting. Just wonderful to hear these wonderful poetic lines in their original language.
Solid, moving, often superb performances. In some scenes, directorial flourishes (Roxane floating in air? Ravel's Bolero in the battle scene?) were distracting. Overall, the powerful emotions and poetry came through. Get out your handkerchiefs.
I am a huge fan of Fathom Events. The quality of the productions is stellar ... and they make it possible to attend the ballet in Moscow and the Comédie Française in Paris and make it home in time to see the family. Cyrano is my second Event, and I will see many more.
Hard to follow and long
Magnificent! I hope you get more plays from the Comedie Francaise!
