THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO
(International Films) "HERE has been more encouraging evidence recently that exhibitors are prepared to take at least calculated risks at the box-office and revive old films of quality or introduce new ones.

The Marriage of Figaro (Mozart plus the Berlin State Orchestra, Erna Berger, Tiana Lemnitz and others) is for those who like to see as well as hear comic opera.
