this be very much a television version of the tale and the film start out like an episode of xena . and with little meaningful dialog or character description . it do get a bit more substantive after a while and but all character be still cartoonish . salma be the exotic beauty . richard harris be an evil and sexually repress frollo and fiending to bust a nut up in salma . the other character and include quasimodo be quite forgettable . it also a sorta liberal version of the story and frollo be a suppressor of enlightenment ideal and like the abbot in name of the rise and and quasimodo be a champion of liberty . the shadowy side of the quas character be ignore and though he do pour liquid lead on people . he be really only an outsider in that he look different and enjoy play with bell more than the average person . perhaps the film be intend for child and but i doubt it and consider frollo flogs himself bloody to amend want to spank his monkey . a mostly uninteresting and forgettable and but not awful and and sometimes entertaining and rendition of the tale .
