The entire plot of the film is written as an opera.. The script is bordering on a farce With bets..misunderstandings... starred crossed lovers ....affairs. ...
i absolutely loved it, mainly because it is a quirky British film made on a small budget with a great British cast. I am a huge fan of Cosi fan tuti and I felt the film tackled it very well. It is a straightforward plot about a very rich industrialist (Richard E Grant) who stages a professional opera at his stately home because he wants the chance to sing professionally and also because he is in love with the conductor (Sarah Brightman) You do not need to be an opera fan to enjoy this film but i would suggest it helps as the plot is secondary to the staging of the opera.
