    OK for a wet Sunday afternoon
    The premise that an untrained singer can attain such a high level within a year is laughable, and I wasn't at all convinced by 'Max', but if you like opera, then you'll enjoy hearing some of your favourite arias trotted out. But also, if you like opera, you'll also notice that the closing duet from Don Giovanni was misinterpreted for the purposes of the film. Here it looked like Zerlina was seducing Don Giovanni; not the other way around. But whatever. Roll on Monday.
