Herbert von Karajan directed this film of Verdi’s Shakespearan masterpiece as well as conducting the Berlin Philharmonic. As the tragic Moor of Venice, arguably his greatest role, John Vickers (in the words of critic David Cairns) "commands both the notes and the moral grandeur of the part. … And he has the aura of greatness – greatness of heart, of bearing, of musical and dramatic conception". Mirella Freni is a heartbreakingly lovely and fragile Desdemona, while the fine English baritone Peter Glossop plays the villainous Jago.

During the long journey that brought him home victorious in the Trojan War, Agamemnon fell in love with one of his captives, Cassander, daughter of Priam, with whom he had children. The reception in Argos, more than ten years later, was icy. Annoyed by the double indelicacy of her husband, Clytemnestra, his wife who had meanwhile become the mistress of Aegisthus, killed him with the help of her lover. Aegisthus then became the regent and ensured the prosperity of the city alongside his mistress, the widowed queen. But Electra, one of the daughters of Agamemnon, has always foreseen the murder and adultery of her mother. Solitary, wild, she lives in the royal palace awaiting the return of Orestes, her brother who has taken refuge since childhood with an uncle, in order to take revenge. Electra can begin, the crimes of the Atreides family continue quietly, as planned.

This spectacular opera film was taped in 1967 and is based on the 1966 Salzburg Festival production directed by Herbert von Karajan himself, who also conducts the fabulous Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. The production features the three greatest exponents of their respective roles at the time: Grace Bumbry’s magnificently seductive-toned Carmen, Mirella Freni’s ineffably lovely, touching Micaëla and Jon Vickers’s thrillingly manic-depressive Don José. On its release the film was hailed by Die Presse, (Vienna) as a “unique artistic event”, while Le Monde felt that Karajan’s production brought “a whole new dimension” to the opera, “combined with a magisterial interpretation”. A classical and utterly dramatic approach to probably the world's most beloved opera – Karajan’s Carmen is as much a delicacy for opera fans as it is a perfect starter for newcomers.

로마의 침략으로 압제에 시달리던 유다인들의 유일한 희망은 성서의 예언대로 하나님이 구세주를 보내리라는 것이었다. 구세주가 나타나면 로마를 몰아내고 이스라엘 백성을 해방시켜 줄 것으로 굳게 믿고 있었다. 예수(제프리 헌터 분)가 가는 곳마다 병자를 고쳐주고, 죽은 사람을 살리는 기적을 일으키자, 그들은 예수가 하나님이 보낸 구세주라고 믿고 따른다. 그러나 그는 평화와 사랑과 화해에 대해서만 말할 뿐, 로마인들을 친다거나 하는 폭력과는 전혀 동떨어진 사람이다. 그가 세우려는 왕국은 세속의 왕국이 아니라, 하나님 나라의 왕국이라고 말한다. 바라바를 지도자로 로마의 압제에서 해방을 꿈꾸는 혁명당원들은 지하 동굴에서 무기를 만들며 기회를 노린다. 그들 중 하나인 유다는 바라바에게 예수와 손잡을 것을 제의한다. 그러나 바라바는 예수와 같이 일할 수 없음을 안다. 그리고 폭동을 일으키나 실패하고 체포되어 옥에 갇힌다. 한편 백성의 원로들과 바리세인파는 예수가 자신들을 위선자라고 책하는 등, 그들의 권위를 떨어뜨리고 민중의 인기를 모으는 것을 시기하여 예수를 어떻게 죽일까를 모의한다. 마침 유다에 로마에서 새로 파견된 본티오 빌라도 총독은 신이나 기적같은 것을 믿지 않는 사람으로, 예수의 설교를 들으러 많은 군중이 모이는 것을 보고 혹시라도 로마의 지배에 저항하는 폭동이 일어날 것을 우려한다. 그와 같은 상황 속에서, 예수의 체포에 결정적인 역할을 한 것은 유다. 그는 예수가 손끝 하나로도 천상 군대를 불러 로마군을 몰아낼 수 있을 기적의 능력을 가졌다는 것을 믿고, 그를 궁지에 몰아넣으면 틀림없이 그 능력을 발휘할 것으로 생각한 나머지 그를 바라바와 한 통속이라고 모함해 고발한다. 예수는 곧 체포되어 십자가형에 처해지지만, 그의 왕국은 세속의 왕국이 아니었으므로 끝내 무력하다. 그러나 그는 사흘 뒤에 부활해서 제자들에게 양들을 잘 보살피라고 부탁한다.

What was it about opera diva Grace Moore that attracted the attention of filmdom's top directors? Moore's 1937 American movie vehicle When You're in Love had been directed by Josef Von Sternberg; two years later, her French starrer Louise was helmed by no less than Abel Gance, who a decade earlier had revolutionized the "historical epic" genre with the awesome Napoleon. There was, however, little that was revolutionary in this cinemadaption of Gustave Charpentier's opera. Moore plays Louise, a poor seamstress who is led astray by the rakish Julien (Georges Thill). After falling from grace (no pun intended), our heroine is rescued by her understanding father (Andre Pernet), who demonstrates his forgiveness by singing to her (it is, after all, an opera). Though it played to enthusiastic crowds in both London and Paris, Louise turned out to be Grace Moore's final film; conversely, Abel Gance continued to make commercial potboilers well into the 1970s.
