I am sure this film was made with great care and love, BUT what it lacked the most of, in my opinion is BREATH.Opera singers learn how to control their breath so to captivate ours. And I agree with the other less favorable reviews that the opening scene really was a bad example of lip-synching particularly because I could not see ms Jolie breathe! towards the visual in this movie.This is a film that made me stop watching it to the end, and I am sorry for it. I too had high hopes for these two iconic ladies.. "One Hundred Years of Solitude" is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month. Check out our December calendar for more!
