Running Time: 3 hours 15 minutes
In a world of shrewd, cynical and billionaire artists, Puccini’s poor and good-hearted heroes have an additional reason to return to move us with their love duets. Their kindness is confined to the cold attic where Mimì returns to die, and to revive memories of lost happiness one last time.
