Academy Award winner Ron Howard is venturing away from the big-budget fare to tell the story of Luciano Pavarotti, the man who single handily brought the world of opera to the masses.
Using archived interviews, remarkable live performances, and never-before-seen footage, Pavorotti lifts the curtain on a public figure that few today know too much about - exploring the voice of a generation as audiences are placed front row center to see all the glitz, glam, and hard work that helped make the man an undeniable legend.
CBS Films has just released a new trailer for the film, offering up a small piece of the much larger puzzle.Though there appears to be little different here compared to other musical documentaries, there does seem to be a unique personality resting within the film’s main subject.I’m not an opera fan, but Pavarotti has my attention.
The film hits theaters on June 7.
About Stephen Davis
I owe this hobby/career to the one and only Stephanie Peterman who, while interning at Fox, told me that I had too many opinions and irrelevant information to keep it all bottled up inside. I survived my first rated R film, Alive, at the ripe age of 8, it took me months to grasp the fact that Julia Roberts actually died at the end of Steel Magnolias, and I might be the only person alive who actually enjoyed Sorority Row…for its comedic value of course. While my friends can drink you under the table, I can outwatch you when it comes iconic, yet horrid 80s films like Adventures in Babysitting and Troop Beverly Hills. I have no shame when it comes to what I like, and if you have a problem with that, then we’ll settle it on the racquetball court. I see too many movies to actually win any film trivia contest, so don’t waste your first pick on me. My friends rent movies from my bookcase shelves, and one day I do plan to start charging. I long to live in LA, where my movie obsession will actually help me fit in, but for now I am content with my home in Austin. I prefer indies to blockbusters, Longhorns to Sooners and Halloween to Friday the 13th. I miss the classics, as well as John Ritter, and I hope to one day sit down and interview the amazing Kate Winslet.
