Dmitri Shostakovich composed this opera, based on a story by Nikolai S. Leskov. Shortly before the October Revolution of 1917, the Izmailov family is thrown into turmoil when Katerina, the wife of the patriarch's weakling son Zinovy, takes a lover, the strapping farmhand Sergei. This screen adaptation is directed by Petr Weigl, with the score performed by The London Philharmonic Orchestra and The Ambrosian Opera Chorus. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

| There ARE subtitles on this disk, but you have to hunt for them. There was no menu when I played the disk on my DVD player, but when I played it my CD/DVD drive in my laptop, I was able to access a menu, and then, voila, there were subtitles. |

| Operas and Ballets at GreenCine, annotated |

| {a list in progress}: GC's 'Music' and 'Music Videos/Performance' genres return tons of entries, mostly pop, but still omit a lot. Here's what I find (1/08) of 'classical' opera & ballet, loosely defined, but excluding purely instrumental performances. |

| Shakespeare on DVD at GreenCine, annotated |
|
|
| It's hard to search for Shakespeare plays, so this list as of 12/07 may help. Alphabetized by main word in title; renamed adaptations such as Throne of Blood are mentioned but not listed. To see GC's own list, click any 'Shakespeare'-as-genre link. |
