unwatchable video April 23, 2004 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a horrible recording of the Nutcracker. You cannot make out what is going on - although I am sure that the dancers performed well - it is the actual recording that is terrible. I could not even finish watching this one. I have several versions of the Nutcracker - all of which are great. I have an extensive collection of ballet tapes and this is the only ballet tape that I will actually throw in the trash. Don't waste your money.
Good-not great November 3, 1999 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This ballet is performed and produced well enough,though it was clearly recorded and dubbed with a video camcorder. Otherwise it was fine. Some of the sequences such as the 'Christmas Tree' scene were a bit slow. and the costumes and story were changed a little. Here the Marie has become Clara, and Godfather Drosselmeyer has Become Uncle Drosselmeyer. If you really LOVE the Nutcracker this recording isn't so bad. Otherwise let this one go.
Great performance - lousy VHS reproduction in EP mode October 24, 1999 James B. Pratt III (Sierra Vista, Arizona) This is a great performance of the Nutcracker. Why anyone would produce and sell this video in VHS EP Mode (Extra Play - long) is beyond belief. The video is hardly watchable due to the poor picture quality!
