Radio City Music Hall

One of the strangest most distasteful films to ever play Radio City at Easter.

Despite its good reviews word of mouth traveled fast and it did poorly and this during a time when holiday shows at the Hall always did well. George Roy Hill said he never wanted another of his films to play there.

Its incongruity at the Hall as a holiday movie was surpassed the following year at Easter with the bleak gritty violent Operation Crossbow. I’m not sure what the programmers there were thinking.

Still its a great ad and made you think you were going to see a bright and funny Peter Sellers' comedy which you definitely did not.

You would have to wait a number of weeks for that. And it would be a classic.
