Lost Horizon 1973

I am sorry, but I guess that I am the only person on the planet who
actually liked, no loved the 1973 version!!! I have seen both and forgive
me but was bored stiff during the 1937 one. I loved Burt Bacharach's music
in the remake, the plot changes, the wonderful cast and just about every-
thing else!! We used to have the record (old days) and the piano score.
I memorized every song and dance and when I was a little girl would dance
and sing to it for hours. That version really moved and stirred me! I
am a school teacher today and I honestly believe part of that is due to
Liv Ullman, the beautiful school teacher and also I must give credit
to Sydney Poitier in "To Sir with Love". I can't find this 1973 version
anywhere! They said it was a "turkey" and didn't think it would sell.
That actually angers me. I hope someday I can find a video or DVD of this
show. I read an e-mail where someone made fun of everything about it and
said how terrible the music, dancing and cast were?!!! He especially
hated "The World is a Circle" the song Liv Ullmann-the teacher, sings
with a group of beautiful children in the lovely setting of shang-ri-la.
THAT was my favorite song. I just feel the need to stick up for this
version-so the world will know that not everyone hates it! In fact,
it's one of my favorite movies of all time!!!!!!! Michelle Fotheringham
