Reviews

BR-Klassik is not convinced:

“Director Ron Howard plays with an overabundance of material: photos from the singer's childhood and adolescence, record covers, recordings of stage appearances - and dozens of snippets of interviews with agents and fellow singers. Everything assembled in rapid succession. The pictures don't have time to work, to create atmosphere. "

Filmstarts , however, praises:

“The portrait of an extraordinary artist and person moves and inspires at the same time. You don't have to be an opera fan to enjoy the documentary about the life and work of the great tenor. Maybe it even helps if you aren't one. "
