I remember when Mario Lanza died I was 10 and my grandmother woke me to tell me he had died my whole family was heartbroken and mourned this fine man with his great voice thankyou mario for enriching my life will never forget you
You beat me to it! Fast hätte ich Ihnen den Link geschickt, wollte aber vorher noch einige Kommentare lesen und habe entdeckt: Sie waren schneller! Bei Mario Lanza können wir eben beide nicht widerstehen... ⭐️
A small, but very significant addition, which slightly changes the point of view, bringing on not a different meaning and perception, but a deepened one. A heart-wrenching finale, re-imagined in an even more emotional way (and the scene leaves you in tears anyway), blending past, present, and the all-too-near future... Touching, so touching... 💖⭐️💖 Great job! And thanks for sharing! 🙏🍀
@@DiPlacido71 Thank you for your kind and affirmative reply! I was only trying to express what your alternate ending did to me, how it was an invitation to open up my mind and add another dimension to the whole scene... So if I got what you wanted to do, you obviously did a brilliant job!!! Well, but you always do... 😊👍👏 Best regards and have a nice weekend! 🍀🍀🍀
This is so beautiful Vince,the moving music,Mario's unparalleled voice and his fantastic acting and the warm touching voice of Caruso's mother one continues to watch; Thank you my friend for this beautiful clip❤️
Nicely done Vincent. This is the first I've seen of this. Mario and Dorothy Kirsten did their usual fabulous jobs, but your alternate ending added deeper meaning to that portion of the film. Thank you for your efforts.
Terrible sad loss,I love his movies his brilliant my mother had a powerful voice and would sing with him,really wish they would play more of theses films ❤❤
Un bellissimo film questo che ha conquistato moltissimi ammiratori a Mario e un grande successo al botteghino. Perché non viene trasmesso in Italia salvo rarissime volte per dare invece spazio a film e telefilm insulsi e pieni di violenza. La voce eccezionale e la musica potrebbero insegnare molto anche ai giovani.
Bravo! Because the film went there (religious references and the gift of a voice as given by Almighty God) I am very happy to see this small 'flashback' - it works. As a child, watching this film at 10,(and having been raised a Catholic) it was this understanding of God's gift that inspired me personally to sing when I realized I, too, had a voice. This film changed my life. I applaud your insight. It works very well.
ah the artistic liberties.... i'm not against you, but the MGM changed even the detail of the last performance ... he performed Halevy's 'la juive' wearing an incredible makeup + his illness... Anyway Lanza is one of our legendary idols and any pretext is valid to enjoy his art... PS: nice bluray rip ;) qualitiy of the bluray remastered editions is crisp!
Enrico è morto sapendo di essere alla fine Mario è morto sapendo che avrebbe finalmente debuttato in un’opera e coronato il suo sogno Il DESTINO forse è stato meno crudele con Mario,la sua voce inondava i piani di Villa Giulia e poco dopo taceva per sempre!
Thanks for that constructive comment! Alternate is another term for alternative. "a novel set in an alternate universe". Alternate - a person or thing that can take the place of another.
@@DiPlacido71 Just because a word has been misused and abused doesn't mean it's decent usage - or correct. Alternate refers to an action of rotating or taking turns, whilst alternative usually refers to another option or choice.
Mr. Di Placido, greetings. Correct me if I'm wrong: was it (or not) in your channel that there was the movie recording of William Olvis singing serenade, with corrected pitch? Apparently the video was taken down, but I have the impression it was your work.
Your alterations bring a continuity to the film with was absent with the original. It makes a complete circle in Caruso's life, starting and ending with Enrico and the love he had for his mother, and her love for what God gave him. Very poignant.
@@DiPlacido71 Absolutely! Though Lanza had some moral flaws (as did many in the entertainment industry), we can't minimize his talent. I remember seeing him in The Great Caruso as a child and was mesmerized by his voice. I loved the film Coma Prima, not only because of that specific piece, but by all the music he sang in that film.
Mario is my favorite singer, good movie and make me cry, love it. thanks my friend.

The way Mario Lanza sang it is as if he knew his time on earth would be all to short 😭😢😭😢😭😢
❤
Thanks again to maintain the memory of this great singer
Vincent, I thanks you very much for this Clip. Wonderful........ever........
You beat me to it!

Very moving ending.
Dorothy kirsten what a great voice she had
Excellent job Vince. Not only fitting for the life of Caruso, but also for Mario's own.
That is life: a continuous feeling.
The same feeling unites us. Not by chance Mario was born the same year that Caruso left...
Thanks again Vincent.
한떨기 장미꽃이 여기저기피었네!! 학생때 배웠던노래를 좋아하는 마리오 란자님의 목소리로들으니 뭉클해집니다,빈센트님 란자님노래듣게해주셔서 고맙습니다,
Brought tears to my eyes once again.
It's very emotional.
It gets me too, Maureen!
Very nice and interesting.
Thank you, dear Vince.
Beautifully done Vincent!!
Very nice touch, Vincent! I always felt the ending was too abrupt in this powerful, incredible movie!
A moving addition to an already great piece touching and poignant well done
Well done, as always. Bravo 👏 Vincent
The Great Caruso ! Beautifull movie ! Mario Lanza was the only tenor be able to perform Caruso's life ! 🙏🖖🌹
I was fortunate enough to work with Dorothy Kirsten on Tosca.

So enjoyed this film
My Dad loved this scene and song. He passed away on 17/10/22 (Monday)
I like it better than the original.
Great work!
Thanks, Darren!
Well done Vince!

You ever considered becoming a film editor, Vince? Very well done, mate. Such a touching and sad interlude. Thank you, as always, for posting x

I always felt the original ending was so unbearable and it always moves me to tears when I see it now.
One of the best voices in the last 100 yrs .
Just great thanyou vincent
Three marveleus singers Mario Lanza and the sopranos Dorothy Kristen and Ann Blyth

Ich höre Mario Lanza lieber an als einen Caruso!!!
Remember it well. Rosa Larsen
It's "alternative", not 'alternate'. These words have completely different meanings.
Thanks for that constructive comment!
Alternate is another term for alternative.
"a novel set in an alternate universe".
Alternate -
a person or thing that can take the place of another.
@@DiPlacido71 Just because a word has been misused and abused doesn't mean it's decent usage - or correct. Alternate refers to an action of rotating or taking turns, whilst alternative usually refers to another option or choice.
You could use 'alternate' as a verb, or a noun. I think that's where the confusion has come in.
🙄
With a biopic, its hard to take any more liberties than they already did here. The Great Caruso cant really have a happy ending.
The best there was
