Bellini I Puritani (2009): cast, story & where to watch
2009 · Film
Released in 2009, Bellini I Puritani is a notable film directed by Pier' Alli, running about 174 minutes. “Florez and Machaidze rule!!” — that tagline sets the tone.
What it’s about. The context is England's Civil War between the Roundheads (the Parliamentarians, or Puritans of the title) and the Cavaliers (Royalists). A love triangle between Arturo (a Puritan), Riccardo (a Royalist) and the beautiful Elvira results in a drama of escapes, disguises and captures, during which Elvira loses her reason, before a final pardon restores her senses and unites her with her beloved Arturo. The lead tenor role is notoriously difficult and Juan Diego Flórez shows no strain or difficulty throughout the role. Opera fans will undoubtedly be impressed with the overall production and the tenor's performance in particular.
Who’s in it. Bellini I Puritani stars Juan Diego Flórez as Lord Arturo Talbo, Nino Machaidze as Elvira, Ildebrando d'Arcangelo as Sir Giorgio Valton and Ugo Guagliardo as Lord Gualtiero Valton, among others.
