Lass mich sterben

I almost forgot! THIS is insane. The worst part is, the song playing in the trailer is Evanescence. GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Possibly the WORST choice to represent what is formally and formerly known as a Wagnerian work. Of course, I highly doubt anyone in the theater knows Tristan und Isolde is an opera by Wagner...or who Wagner is. OK, OK...it was a mythical story loooooooooong before Dickie W composed anything. But I bet move Isolde can't sing the Liebestod!

  • Have you seen Goodnight, and Good Luck yet? It's wonderful. Even more so because of George Clooney.

  • You know in the actual story, not the opera, it was Tristam (meaning sorrow) and Isuelt, not Tristan and Isolde. The movie looks good to me, and fairly close to the original storyline.
