Der Freischütz (1988)

Overview

DramaMusic

A troubled marksman, desperate to secure love and status, turns to forbidden magic in a rural community ruled by superstition and ritual. This stark television adaptation strips Weber’s Romantic opera of spectacle, recasting it as a bleak folk-horror parable about fear, failure, and the cost of choosing certainty over conscience.

11.17-11.19. Meravigliosa musica, suggestiva,misteriosa, gravemente solenne e sublime cin quel suono di campane alla fine. Molto romantica. Quel frammento è un vero capolavoro.
