Editorial Reviews
"...Ying Huang is a promising, even very promising, new singer, capable of a deeply felt vocal performance..."
Sight and Sound - p.47-8 - Nick Kimberley

"...A visual combination of authentic Japanese realism and picturesque, dream-like cinematography that matches the lushness of Puccini's music..." -- 3 out of 4 stars
USA Today - p.4D

"...Ms. Huang has a strong, supple lyric soprano....The music still works its bittersweet magic..."
New York Times - p.C8 - Stephen Holden

"...The film's final chrysalis scene gets up considerable visual and emotional steam..."
Film Comment - p.66-7 - Kathleen Murphy

"...Superbly cinematic....Emotionally devastating..."
Los Angeles Times - p.F13 - Kevin Thomas

"...Beautiful....As a treatment of the story, as an evocation of the emotions of love and the wounds of betrayal, it is close to Puccini's intentions, and very moving..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (11/22/1996)
