      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    As with Richard Wagner

    DVD Picture:
    The 1.78:1 DVD is not anamorphically enhanced but exhibits good quality and should surely please fans of opera. Colors are rich and well balanced, especially the scarlet set and costumes. Blacks are deep and solid. Images are generally sharp, but shots of the full stage are slightly smeared. Overall, the picture is satisfying. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #21 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I received a DVD for Christmas and went to the newsstand to learn all about DVD movies and Widescreen TV. I picked up an entire different magazine and out of all of them, yours was the best. It is that simple. As a matter of a fact, I just subscribed to Widescreen Review.
