this version of the lose horizon be actually not a bad film at all . i think the problem be people like to pick on musical and especially those make in the 70 . i saw the film upon it original release in 1973 ( i be ten ) and really enjoy it and the music especially . ( burt bacharach have always be a favorite . ) the story be fun and the acting be good and and technically it excellent . sure and there be one or two rather silly dance number and but hey and you can not win em all . i have this film on video and watch it every so often . and i enjoy it each and every time .
