Quadruplex The show is sheer fun. Bette is as entertaining as ever. Personally, I considered only the 'burlesque' sequence of the show a bit tedious, over-the-top and annoying. (Another small nuisance is one dancer in the opening scene who didn't bother to spit out her chewing gum before entering the stage.)But the DVD is produced in Grandpa's tube style: 4:3 format, lots of cuts, lots of close-ups - you hardly get a view of the entire stage. The audio is Dolby Surround encoded, but the sound quality is so-so: lots of compression, narrow stereo base.Like I wrote: Made for TV. The picture quality of the PAL DVD, however, is surprisingly good - does anybody know whether it was originally recorded on a hi-def format? Because video converted from NTSC to PAL usually looks way worse than this...
2004uk Love it, love it, love it! This is another absolutely superb performance from the Divine Miss M. From the beginning to the end, this is one big treat! Don't rent it- buy it now!
Daniel-88 A longtime fan of Bette Midler, I must say her recorded live concerts are my favorites. Bette thrills us with her jokes and brings us to tears with her ballads. A literal rainbow of emotion and talent, Bette shows us her best from her solid repertoire, as well as new songs from the "Bette of Roses" album. Spanning generations of people she offers something for everyone. The one and only Divine Diva proves here that she is the most intensely talented performer around.
BetteMid Bette Midler showcases her talents and beauty in "Diva Las Vegas". I am thrilled that I taped it and I am able to view whenever I want to. She possesses what it takes to keep an audience in captivity. Her voice is as beautiful as ever and will truly impress you. The highlight of the show was her singing "Stay With Me" from her 1979 movie "The Rose". You can feel the emotion in the song and will end up having goose bumps. The show will leave you with the urge to go out and either rent a Bette Midler movie or go to the nearest music store and purchase one of Bette Midler's albums.
