. . . one can see whatever production one likes, Eurotrash or not, many, many times. One can see whatever movie one likes many, many times.

Zefirelli is not the only director who tries to honor the opera's stage directions - he's kind of the lightning rod of course, but there are many others.

I enjoy giving the younger directors a go too - but I don't enjoy crass self-regarding self-indulgence which cavalierly disrespects the explicit directions of the artistic creators. I ask again, what did audiences do before the rise of Eurotrash productions - did they all have infinitely refined digestion?
