June 2008 ****	“Exceptional value in one box, if you like the lip-synced cinematic approach - and these are excellent examples, including the first Tosca shot in Roman locations, superlatively cast...One of the finest Butterflys in any medium.”
New York Times	“The film drives its sad tale home with devastating force”
	“As near an ideal Bohème as you could hope to find”
	“A milestone in the history of La Bohème”
	“The finest opera production I have ever seen on TV”
2010 edition */**	“These three splendidly traditionally filmed productions with starry casts are very highly recommendable...altogether they make a wonderful mid-priced package. This is what filmed opera should be about.”
