2.Verdi - La Traviata / Levine, Stratas, Domingo starring: Teresa Stratas, Plácido Domingo, Cornell MacNeil, Allan Monk, Pina Cei directed by: Franco Zeffirelli March 01, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $5.49
Domingo sings beautifully, Stratas less so but looks and acts the part. The biggest problem is there are so many cuts and shortened arias that you could almost call this "extended highlights". And Zeferelli over-produces, particularly with camera work. If you want a movie version get Anna Moffo's of over 30 years ago. Now there was a Violetta!

3.Jesus of Nazareth (3pc) starring: Robert Powell, Olivia Hussey, Laurence Olivier, James Mason, Anne Bancroft directed by: Franco Zeffirelli February 22, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.90
This video is not as biblically accurate as I was led to believe by the other reviews. I purchased this to augment my bible study teaching so I may be a little tougher on the movie then most people. Dramatic license is taken in several places because of the need to let the viewer know some of the backround as well as the portraying of the actual incidents in Jesus' life. The movie is already 6 hours long so I can understand the necessity of this but some of decisions by the producer are almost ridiculous. Young Jesus is portrayed by a young man with blue eyes, blond hair, and the whitest skin I've ever seen on someone from the middle east. All in all though, the movie has some cool parts and is worth watching. I would recommend it.

6.Brother Sun Sister Moon starring: Graham Faulkner, Judi Bowker, Leigh Lawson, Kenneth Cranham, Lee Montague directed by: Franco Zeffirelli March 05, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.97
I had to watch this movie in three different intervals because the movie was so boring. It was anticipating that this movie would answer some of my questions as to how Saints interact with God and why Saints feel they need to suffer to embrace the love of God. Since the movie was such a letdown, I drove over to my Library and checked out the Relectant Saint The Life of Francis if Assisi. The book is far more informative and paints a more realistic picture of St Francis. It's strange how Hollywood can make such a mess out of something so beautiful.

7.Hamlet (1990) starring: Mel Gibson, Glenn Close, Alan Bates, Paul Scofield, Ian Holm directed by: Franco Zeffirelli February 07, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.10
After seeing Olivier's version of Hamlet, I was interested in seeing this version of Hamlet. Admittedly, Mel Gibson was one-hundred percent of my impulse to see this film. I don't usually follow actors when choosing movies; I trust directors more than I trust actors in choosing movies. But Mel Gibson is an exception to this rule: when was the last time the man made a bad movie?-- I can't even think of one. With this said, I rented this movie and watched it with growing delight and amazement. As always, Mel was Mel--great. Glen Close--great. The actors and actresses, from Mel Gibson, to Glen Close,to Alan Bates, to Ian Holmes, etc., delivered the complicated verses of the Bard's epic tragedy as though those words were their very own words. And those words, though fast and often ferocious, ... Read More

8.The Champ starring: Jon Voight, Faye Dunaway, Rick Schroder, Jack Warden, Arthur Hill directed by: Franco Zeffirelli July 09, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.49
The Champ One of my 2 favorite movies, but prepare the tissues because you WILL shed a couple of tears. It's a drama so younger viewers my not appreciate it, but if you're looking for a GREAT storyline and acting, this is one to watch

9.Tea With Mussolini starring: Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Joan Plowright, Cher, Lily Tomlin directed by: Franco Zeffirelli March 07, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.03
Tea with Mussolini is loosely based on a biography of film maker Franco Zeffrelli. It's the story of several English women, referred to as the Scorpioni who live in Florence, Italy. They are all in love with Italy and happily take advantage of the great art and beauty of Florence. It's home to them! The ladies have a small close community and a few of them become involved with Luca, who is the illegitimate son of a local man. After his mother dies, he's placed in an orphanage. The ladies are Mary (Joan Plowright), Arabella (Judi Dench) and Hester ( Maggie Smith), and all help to care for the boy in some way. Because Hester is the widow of an English statesman, she tries to dominate the other ladies, but they can usually ignore her snobbish ways. The English ladies are also assisted by two American ...
