Sentiment: positive

Review: be nominated for an oscar next year 
Sentiment: positive

Review: the libretto directs , ideally capturing the opera 's drama and lyricism 
Sentiment: positive

Review: a crescendo that encompasses many more paths than we started with 
Sentiment: positive


Review: contrived , awkward and filled with unintended laughs , the film shows signs that someone other than the director got into the editing room and tried to improve things by making the movie go faster .
