Yes Giorgio (1982)

fun and fancy

This is just a fun movie. Luciano is the only reason I bought it.
And he comes through in great form. But I fell in love with the
nuns. Great for a relaxing sunny Sunday afternoon. The infidelity
was disturbing and I think it could have been done much better. October 13, 2008

Why no DVD of this wonderful movie?

Pavarotti is unsurpassed in his singing. The last scene of him singing Nessun Dorma in costume is worth waiting through the whole movie!!! The first scene of him singing Ave Maria is gorgeous also. Buy this for the music, scenery and a little fun. (If you can find it!!!!) I hope this is released on DVD and also the soundtrack on CD. Very hard to find!!! March 4, 2008

Farewell, Giorgio!

Yes Giorgio was the only cinematographic incursion of Luciano Pavarotti in the great screen as an opera singer who recovers his vanished voice thanks to the miracle of love.

A simple and amusing film without major complications.

Are you Kidding?

Really? One question to all the reviewers of this movie? Have you seen a different movie that I did? I mean, don't get me wrong. I LOVE Pavarotti - the greatest voice of the 20th century for my money - but SERIOUSLY. This movie? It completely lived down to my expectations. I saw Pavarotti onstage many times and understood that he could not act - and didn't care! But in a huge house, his voice and presence and the whole ambiance of Opera made it unimportant. But on film - he has nowhere to hide - and all his acting flaws are exposed.
Now, having said that - I REALLY want this movie on DVD - because along with my full MST3K collection, there is nothing I'd enjoy more than a nice evening with some pasta, a bottle of wine and GIORGIO!
Enjoy it for the right reasons, people - but don't make it into something it's not.
