Le Barbier de Seville (2020): cast, story & where to watch
2020 · Film
Released in 2020, Le Barbier de Seville is a notable film directed by Damiano Michieletto.
What it’s about. Inspired by Beaumarchais' comedy, Rossini retains all the passion to create this bubbling opera buffa. A native of Venice, the cradle of the commedia dell’arte, Damiano Michieletto is sensitive to the burlesque vein of Rossinian music. He transposes the action of this "unnecessary precaution" into a contemporary Seville inspired by the cinema of Almodóvar. Bartolo’s monumental building, in which Figaro swirls in free electron, allows the director to give free rein to his crazy imagination.
Who’s in it. Le Barbier de Seville stars Xabier Anduaga as Il Conte d'Almaviva, Carlo Lepore as Bartolo and Lisette Oropesa as Rosina.
