The hilarity of Gilbert and Sullivan's Patience is captured here in this filmed production by Opera Australia. The story follows the lovesick exploits of a group of village maidens, two aesthetic-minded poets, a regiment of guards, and a fetching milkmaid named Patience. The bawdy tunes further illuminate the story as the village maidens abandon their common guards for the more sensitive bards, but the uncooperative bards are enamored of the lovely Patience. The delightful farce eventually untangles with plenty of satisfying and boisterous Gilbert and Sullivan choruses. ~ Jessica Frost, All Movie Guide All Movie Guide
