that was one of the worst movies I’ve seen in quite a while. doesn’t work as a musical/opera, doesn’t work as a melodrama, and I’m baffled that wikipedia calls this a “comedy.” the much derided surgery song is actually the best sequence in the movie because at least it goes all out as an embarrassing musical…the rest half asses it. that’s not even getting into the stuff people are mad about!
