Product Description
...Matchless for its dramatic power...and Ulanova s Juliet is unforgettable. -Clive Barnes.
A historic performance by the legendary Galina Ulanova, with the Bolshoi Ballet, highlights this lush production of the ever-popular ballet. Choreographed by Leonid Lavrovsky and conducted by world famous Gennadi Rozhdestvensky, this film is rich in detail and characterized by its lovely interior and exterior location work. Yuri Zhdanov is the young Romeo to Ulanova s unforgettable Juliet. A great ballet is here filmed paying great attention to all the values: musical, choreographic and scenic.This remastered version eliminates the narration that heretofore had interrupted Prokofiev's score at critical points in the ballet.
