PUCCINI: MANON LESCAUT
19802h 10m8.0 TMDb
Directed by Kirk Browning
Spoiler-Free
All the throbbing eroticism—and ultimate heartbreak—of Puccini’s youthful score is unleashed by James Levine and his top-flight cast. Plácido Domingo is Des Grieux, the handsome, headstrong young aristocrat who falls head over heels for the enticing, impetuous Manon Lescaut (Renata Scotto).
