The Opera Movie for those who hate Opera
This is a bold interpretation of Mozart’s “Don Giovanni” with modern settings (Budapest) and modern language(English, cause we have the best swear words!)including profanity, and even a smattering of nudity and violence. The singers, all international stars, are young, slim and attractive. They do not lip sync, but sing live on location, so there is an immediacy to their performances. I was lucky enough to see the US premiere at Palm Springs International Film Festival, even before the Danish premiers. The director explained at the festival Q&A the complicated process of recording the singers live to give the movie it’s “real” feel, and it works.

Not impressed…
I am not terribly familiar with Don Giovanni (although I know some of the tunes), which may be part of the reason that “Juan” did not impress me. I’ll admit the live voices gave the film an admirable authenticity, and several of the main actors were very good (esp. Juan himself), but besides this I only have criticisms.

Any modern, present-day setting of a classic opera is a huge gamble. It works when the director really knows what he’s doing and has the artistic chops to pull it off, but sadly this one doesn’t quite. He seems more interested in the modernized staging than in emphasizing the music. And most catastrophically, he introduces profanity into one of the highest human art forms. It then becomes a tasteless pandering to an extremely low common denominator, bordering on reality-TV. Perhaps it is an attempt to attract new audiences, but personally I find it wrongheaded. High art is about beauty and truth, and base profanity belongs in the gutter; it is not worth preserving for posterity in a full-scale original film production. I know many will find my view puritanical, but for me it’s a question of beauty over ugliness. Profanity promotes and maintains negative emotions and has no noteworthy redeeming qualities. It certainly does not belong in opera.

Even at 105 minutes, I found this very altered and abridged version long enough to be tiresome, and I have no desire to watch it again.

My rating: 6 stars out of 10.
