Informative documentary
I found this to be an informative documentary about the Bolshoi, but I really think it should be a "bonus" on a commercial release of the Re-Opening Gala. That should have been released with this as a bonus. This is not long enough to rate a release on its own. It is just under an hour. I found it informative about the Bolshoi, but I think it tried too hard to show too much about the rebuilding of this theatre. It starts focusing on the major problems and then veers off in another direction and also includes history. I think it needed to be longer to really explain the reconstruction and the problems that were faced. There were some nice clips of dancers but all too short. I'm still glad I bought this, but I felt it was trying to cover all bases about the Bolshoi and ended up only able to give a general brush over about it.
Fascinating!
We watched this DVD with pleasure, fascination, and interest. If you appreciate the Bolshoi, you'll love this DVD. Makes a wonderful gift.
