5 stars A voice to die for
Yoshikazu Mera has to be one of the best counter tenors ever with a range of three and a half octaves and purity and clarity that would make most female opera singers envious. Spine tinglingly beautiful renditions of some remarkable classical pieces. He certainly deserved a greater global recognition of his unique gift.

Despite his weak eyesight, Rudyard Kipling's son Jack was determined to serve in the military during World War I. Unlike many parents, Kipling was adamant that his son have the opportunity to see action and uphold the values that were a constant motif in his writing.

Daniel Radcliffe takes off Harry Potter's robes to star in this serious drama. In 1914, Rudyard Kipling (David Haig) is at the peak of his literary fame and is the British Empire's greatest supporter. With World War I fast approaching, Kipling's son, Jack (Daniel Radcliffe), is determined to serve his country but finds himself rejected due to his ...

Mysterious, troubled, and brilliant--Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky created an emotional array of compositions that captured both his inner demons as well as the time period he lived through. While facts about his life, and particularly his homosexual affairs, are difficult to come by, this dramatic interpretation is blended with a documentary approach led by acclaimed composer Charles Hazlewood. It's both a creative imagining of what Tchaikovsky's turmoil might have been like as well as ...
