Our take
Reminiscent of Amadeus, this sumptuous biopic brings to life the remarkable story of the most legendary castrato singer of all time. Full of the fiery passions and dramatic intrigue that often stalks great talent, the Oscar®-nominated, Golden Globe winner Farinelli hits all the high notes.
