In this documentary, award-winning filmmaker Susan Froemke explores the creation of the Metropolitan Opera’s storied home of the last five decades. Drawing on rarely seen archival footage, stills, and recent interviews, The Opera House looks at an important period of the Met’s history and delves into some of the untold stories of the artists, architects, and politicians who shaped the cultural life of New York City in the ’50s and ’60s. Among the notable figures in the film are famed soprano Leontyne Price, who opened the new Met in 1966 in Samuel Barber’s Antony and Cleopatra; Rudolf Bing, the Met’s imperious General Manager who engineered the move from the old house to the new one; Robert Moses, the unstoppable city planner who bulldozed an entire neighborhood to make room for Lincoln Center; and Wallace Harrison, whose quest for architectural glory was never fully realized.

西班牙作曲家法雅的独幕歌剧《佩德罗师傅的木偶戏》的电视电影版本，取材自塞万提斯的《堂吉诃德》场景。在乡村旅店，佩德罗师傅的木偶剧团上演骑士传奇，骑士堂·加弗罗斯从异教徒国王手中拯救妻子梅丽桑德拉，堂吉诃德看得过于投入，跳上舞台，砸烂了异教徒国王。该电影版本既忠实于木偶戏 的设定，同时还利用了假面芭蕾，视觉语言丰富。 这部电影于2007年收录于DECCA唱片的DVD“西班牙花园之夜”，和另两部西班牙音乐影片并列，分别为拉罗查演奏的法雅《西班牙花园之夜》和佩佩·罗梅罗演奏罗德里戈《阿兰胡埃斯协奏曲》。
