La musica del silenzio

Music Of Silence chronicles the life of world famous opera singer Andrea Boccelli, from his beginning as a singer in Italian piano bars to his phenomenal success on the world stage. The film features magnificent panoramic scenery of Boccelli's native Tuscany and a superb musical score, as well as, first rate performances by a fine cast. It is a must see for fans of Boccelli, and opera music in general.

The film is a "great to watch". The real life inspired story takes place fully in Italy, but the original language is preferred to be English, most probably for popular purposes.

I loved learning about Andrea Boccelli's life and am inspired by him, and admire and love him very much. The acting was very good, and Antonio Banderas was fabulous.

I was only disappointed with the fact, I am Italian and this was in English. The Queen's English spoken by Italians is dreadful and unnatural. I would have preferred English subtitles.

Stirring to heart and soul, this recounting of the aspects of a child, youth, teen, and adult overcoming hardship unimaginable will leave you full! I am so glad that I found this on Netflix. Pure satisfaction.

A strongly recommended film especially for those looking for an alternative to action-driven films with little substance. This is quite a drama tough so be ready for some tears or emotional moments.

Bocelli's lifestory is tough and makes quite an underdog story. For me, the drama was created and elevated by the relationship of Bocelli with four women these being his mother/primary school teacher/maestro's wife and his wife. These talented actors bring such a force of life into the film that I wish I could watch more of them in other films.

And the maestro, I never knew Banderas could be such an accomplished actor as I always took him for a showy pop actor. I was mistaken. It would be great to see him in more classical roles.
