Where is the phantom, where is the enchantress!
The solitary echoes of intense sadness, deep pain, and unparalleled singing against a gorgeous baroque background were never expected to be so moving until I watched it.
Dandan said that the film reminded her of Farewell My Concubine. Faranelli is a kind of physical castration, while Cheng Dieyi is spiritual.
In fact, Carlo has always lived as a real man. Maybe he doesn't care about his talent and his good voice, and he is not a fan of music. However, the brothers who...

European Personality and Traditional Opera Charm
There are several places that make a deep impression on the film. The first is the love relationship between men and women in Europe at that time. The verbal teasing or physical relationship between each other was very direct, without too much concealment or subtlety.
The second is mutual coexistence, focusing on mutual respect and politeness, but at the same time, the words between conversations will not have too many Chinese-style "ceremonies" or cover up personal opinions....

Beautiful to make people faint on stage scene, gorgeous and beautiful singing, supreme musical status~~~ He has what all singers dream of. But his song "Let Me Cry" made me hear the pain in his heart, the pain that can't be expressed, the pain that can't shed tears~~~ What kind of pain
should the eyes
that want to cry without tears make him so Falling down without resistance The
people who can't love the ones who can't love will
live in grief all their...

The 1994 film was shot like the 1984 Amadeus - maybe some people even retorted "How can it compare to "Mozart"? The director's narration is very calm, and I see beauty in it, the beauty that is unique to Baroque art, the gorgeous beauty, the dizzying and suffocating beauty. The joy of that era was built on the sorrow of those castratos.
"In my eyes, you are just a singing machine." Handel said with contempt and unwillingness. For the first time I've seen people hate because of...

When I watched it for the first time, I had a feeling—the arias in it were really beautiful, and I was a little overwhelmed when I heard it, and I didn’t have time to study the plot of the movie. The combing of the plot is completed when the film is played repeatedly in order to relive the arias in it. When the plot of the story is clear in the mind bit by bit, the inner emotions of the characters in the play are also infiltrated bit by bit. After a thorough understanding of the story,...

Like a fake (not) implicitly out-of-the-closet GAY movie, a pseudo-biographical movie with two male protagonists without even a heroine, the ending is that the brothers share their love for the last time by sharing a woman, and then the older brother leaves the younger brother a The child went far away, while the younger brother continued to read letters from afar while wearing the same ring as the older brother's. The music is naturally extremely beautiful. The movie that was heard in the name...

It's so sad to sing based on pain, but maybe he'll find freedom in it. The human body may not be absolutely free, but the heart can. If you only see what you can't have, and trap yourself in a corner, how hopeless. You can be happy now, please be happy now. Form is not the soul of content, love is in one's own...

I watched the movie more than ten years ago. The story taught me a piece of history and a moving life. The eunuch's voice was very pleasant, but there seemed to be strands of sadness in his voice. Maybe it was my association when I was watching a movie, and then I wanted to find some castrato singer's records to listen to, but such records are hard to find, after all, it's history that has already been turned...

Sacrificing the younger brother and protecting the elder brother, the last wish of the old father is very similar to the countless parents in China, overdrafting the happiness of the daughter to maintain the life of the son. Thinking of this, I still believe that maybe people’s joys and sorrows are not the same, at least in There are similarities in being ridiculed by fate. At the same time, I also thought that I saw someone talking about "Big Breasts and Fat Buttocks" on Weibo a few days ago....
Carlo Broschi: I admire your nerve, madame, in daring to defy Handel.
Countess Mauer: Women are very strong, signor Farinelli. Men's weaknesses make it necessary.
Carlo Broschi: [on Riccardo's opera "Orpheo"] You'll never finish it!
Riccardo Broschi: Castrato! Castrato!
