Buy Giuseppe Verdi - Don Carlo (DVD)

Giuseppe Verdi`s epic, bleak, and complicated four-act Italian opera has been performed many times, and by many of opera`s greats. This standout version has Riccardo Chailly conducting the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, and features excellent performances by Robert Lloyd, Rolando Villazon, Amanda Roocroft, and Dwayne Croft. The impressive, stylized sets help to convey DON CARLO`s themes of oppression and lend a claustrophobic, modern feel to the proceedings, while Willy Decker`s energetic direction keeps the long performance from dragging.

Molokai: The Story of Father Damien (DVD) » Molokai: The Story of Father Damien (DVD)

Inspiring true story follows the epic life of Father Damien (Wenham), a legendary Belgian priest who dedicated his life (quite literally) to the care and spiritual guidance of a doomed Hawaiian leper colony during the late 1800s. Faced with appallingly daunting conditions--symptoms ignored, food stolen from the sick, the weak forced into slavery, diseased girls forced into prostitution--the priest supported himself through his sense of justice and his unwavering faith. A counterpart of other beneficent luminaries such as Mother Theresa and Gandhi, Damien`s story speaks of the triumph of the human and the indomitable force of one man`s will to do what is morally and spiritually right in a
beautiful, alien world. Spectacular scenery and panoramic Hawaiian vistas add a particularly aesthetic pleasure to the story.
Screenplay by John Briley, the scribe responsible for GANDHI.
