  1. I agree, this was superb; one of the best 3D movies ever. I also enjoyed the backstage preliminaries, and especially the intimate shots in the “pit” of the orchestra. The conductor miming the players was a nice touch. I was hoping that they would have returned for more orchestra shots and backstage shots during the intermission, but they didn’t. However, the countdown clock was reminiscent of the drive-in movies clocks. The stereoscopic imaging was very well planned and designed. A lot of work went into this production. Stereographer Phil Streather should be congratulated.

    There were only about a dozen people at the screening that I saw. It is really too bad that so many people (both opera fans and 3D fans) missed it. It was not promoted. They did have a website, but you would have missed it if you did not know that it was there. No newspaper ads, no bus stop posters, no theater placards or one-sheets. No radio or TV spots that I am aware of. No pre-announcements. No publicity. Nothing. The small attendance is not surprising when you consider that no one knew about it.
