Amor Real [DVD]

Yo apenas e comprado la novela en dvd, y solo espero que sea igual a la novela en tv. Yo e visto los reviews de las otras personas y por lo que veo no son tan agradables. Solo espero no estar decepsionada por lo poco que pague de $7. solo puedo decir que el publico hispano fue el que pidimos la novela en dvd para poder verla cuando queriamos. Por tan real que fue esta novela y nos lleguo al corazon. Y aunque fuera 10 dvd's o mas que tomara lo deberian de hacer. a mi no me importara aver pagado $40 por esta novela. Fue laultima que llegue a ver. En verdad espero no estar decepsionada con ella porque es la novela que mas me a gustado.

I was so enchanted by the novela as it aired on television that I was anxiously awaiting the DVD version. When it arrived, I couldn't wait to watch it. Although a bit disappointed initially to find that a lot of the scenes for Catalina, her family and her courtship with Adolfo were edited, I was still very enchanted and loved every minute that was included of the relationships between Manuel, Mati, Humberto, Antonia and the rest. The settings, the cast, the storyline - WOW! what can I say - I haven't been able to stop myself from watching it over and over again.I especially found the subtitles option extremely helpful for me. I also loved the second DVD with all the bloopers and behind the scenes specials produced by Televisa for the novela.

One of the most beautiful series I have watched. It is very well directed and acted, and it provides vital historical information on Mexico before and during the Revolution of 1910 to 1921. It is simply fabulous! Every single role is cast to perfection, so believable, and the hacienda where it was filmed provides such authenticity to the story. Mexican actors Fernando Colunga, Adela Noriega, Ernesto Laguardia, Mauricio Islas, Helena Rojo, Ana Berta Espín, Julio Alemán, Mario Iván Martínez (from The Librarian), Ana Martín, and Chantal Andere are amazing!

This DVD presentation consists of 2 double sided DVD's with a total playing time of 436 minutes. It has English subtitles that can be turned on and off. The first DVD contains the actual story - divided into 17 chapters to which the viewer has access from the main menu - as obtained by putting together very short film clips from the original episodes. The second DVD includes additional material as follows: Presentation by Carla Estrada, Executive Producer, The special Amor Real para La Historia (which aired in the United States approximately one week after the last episode of the telenovela, Bloopers, The presentation of prizes to the actors and other people who made Amor Real possible, and a (relatively long) preview of the telenovela Rubi'.The first DVD could be viewed as a synopsis of the original work, and it is masterfully put together in that the story unfolds smoothly while the viewer - unless aware of it - does not realize that he/she watching the condensed version of a longer original. The only problem with this approach is in that our viewer does not get to know the characters to any extensive depth - and most of them are worth knowing, for example, Augusta, the mother (so beautifully portrayed by Helena Rojo). Also, one misses some longer scenes, along with the short film clips. They would have been worth having.The special "Un Amor Real para la Historia" on the second DVD, is another short version of the original story, and seems somewhat more interesting in that it includes speeches and discussions by actors, other crew members, reporters, who provide information about the Ciudad Trinidad (a town built especially for the telenovela), about the dresses, the makeup, the hair styles, the photography, etc.The other titles on the second DVD are self explanatory.Although a poor substitute for the "real" thing, the Amor Real DVD is an excellent production, and a good souvenir of what is without doubt among the best telenovelas produced in Mexico.A very fine production "para coleccionar y guardar en el corazon".

I am so happy that they made Amor Real into DVD. I am glad that I can have it in my collection to watch over and over again. A lot of the show has been edited so you don't get everything on the DVD. Then again, I have never sen any novellas out on DVD and I will tak it when I can. After the show is over they rarely replay them on TV so even though it is not the entire show I am still happy to watch the love affair of Matilde and Manuel over and over again!

I was so disappointed with the DVD version of this wonderful novela. They edited a 96-episode novela down to 1 double-sided disc. The second disc is basically Carla Estrada congratulating herself and the crew. They actually filmed the crewmembers being thanked for their work on the novela and ones who spoke, of course, thanked Carla Estrada. They showed bloopers and talked about the costumes. This is something that should have been a special feature on part on a disc. They should not have wasted two sides of a double DVD for this boring pat on the back for Carla Estrada. I don't understand why they couldn't have released the entire novela. Even if they had used both the double-sided discs for the novela the story wouldn't have been so chopping and confusing-even for someone who saw the novela on TV. I feel so cheated.Disc 1 chopped up novelaDisc 2 celebration of Carla Estrada/a few minutes of bloopersThe subtitles are only in English. Why not English and Spanish? ¿Por qué?
