Verdi’s IL TROVATORE again storms the Met stage in a star-studded, anvil-wielding cast , including Sondra Radvanovsky, Dolora Zajick and Dmitri Hvorostovsky.

Meanwhile, her son Manrico is in love with Leonora, but so is his arch-enemy, the Count Di Luna. A pot-boiler, where every tune is a hit.

Andrei Tarkovskys mesterværk Vandringsmanden fra 1979 er en af Ruslands allerstørste science fiction-film. Den er blevet kaldt Tarkovskijs mest pessimistiske vision af verden, men det er også hans måske mest tilgængelige film, åben for allehånde fortolkninger. Løst baseret på en roman af forfatterne Arkady og Boris Strugatsky er det en filosofisk fabel om en videnskabsmand og forfatter, der følger en såkaldt stalker ind i det forbudte territorium kaldet Zonen, som staten har afspærret, og hvor rygtet vil vide, at mennesker kan få deres inderste ønsker opfyldt. Turen gennem militære kontrolposter og obskure farer bliver en rejse ind i en anden verden, hvor Tarkovsky lader virkeligheden vige for abstrakte billeder og livsanskuelser med en overrumplende originalitet.
