MGM blocked the video Diva.

That was a really fast block. Who knew they were so protective of Man of LaMancha?

Dammit, the claim is in dispute, which usually means that the video is watchable in the interim. Clearly this is not the case here. Uploading a copy to Google Drive now; expect it later this evening. My apologies for the further delay, and thanks for your patience and support.

The color scheme in this movie is as bad and dull as “Camelot”

Here at least it has some purpose--Cervantes set Don Quixote in La Mancha precisely because it was the most prosaic, unromantic place he could think of. Kind of like why Dorothy Gale hails from Kansas.

I was curious how this would go, because it's the first you've taken on that I unabashedly loved back when I first saw it. I wasn't ready to be offended at criticism, because even at the time, I knew the movie was very flawed. But I forgave the flaws because I found it so *inspiring*. What can I say, I was an idealistic 19-year-old college student primed to be inspired by such things! So it was interesting to have your conclusion pretty much be the opposite of why it grabbed me. It's been ages since I watched it -- it would be hard for me to evaluate it now without the nostalgia factor. (And I have no experience of the stage version.)

There are parts of Man of La Mancha that are genuinely inspiring--how can you not stand a little taller hearing "The Impossible Dream"? I just feel like the flaws in the movie make some of the inherent shortcomings of the material more obvious (kind of similar to how I react to the film of Phantom of the Opera, honestly).
