| This is the problem with many film adaptions of Broadway musicals - the reviewer hates the material on stage - so of course they will hate the film. "Man of La Mancha" was criticized by most critics - but the criticism was about the material and not so much the way it was filmed, so was "1776" and both films were released in late 1972. The other 1972 musical was "Cabaret" which hardly resembles the stage show in story and structure |
