Unlike an American, who would have told the story of a baseball player or dance hall girl, German director Reichmann spins the saga of an opera singer's climb to the top of the classical ladder. Knowing the weight of some of those tenors, let's hope the rungs can hold them. Weak direction
and poor use of music hamper this prettily packaged film.
