THE GREAT CARUSO

Details

Enrico Caruso (Mario Lanza) rises from humble beginnings in Naples to become an opera star.

Richard Thorpe directed this 1951 MGM musical biography from a Sonya Levien-William Ludwig script based on Enrico Caruso: His Life and Death by Caruso's widow Dorothy. (Italian relatives of Caruso sued MGM over their dramatic liberties and the movie was temporarily withdrawn from release in that country!) Lanza's biggest movie hit.

A watch party for historical movies on Friday nights.
