Title: Mecha-Blog-Zilla's latest review: "The Hunchback Of Notre Dame"
Post by: TheDope on July 13, 2012, 06:15:13 PM
I love Victor Hugo.

I love classic stories of unrequited love and forbidden passions.

...I do NOT love them when accompanied by singing and dancing gargoyles.

REALLY do not love them. (http://thegreatwhitedope.blogspot.com/2012/07/hunchback-of-notre-dame-1996.html)

What a classic! No other version of this has so well captured the atmosphere and tragedy of the 1939 film. Charles Laughton was a treasure.

Exactly my point, Tracy!  One of the best adaptations is Laughton's.  WHY DID WE NEED A KIDDIE VERSION???  WHY??!!
