    All the cleverness and intricacies you expect from Sondheim. Pity about Liz's vocals but she's still great in the part of Desiree. If you're partial to Merchant Ivory films you will love this. The Henstooth Video dvd is the way to go.

    As a pastiche of time and place, it has no equal. Although the locale has changed from Sweden to Austria, there's no loss and, in fact, some gain. The era and place suits itself nicely for a tale of infidelity combined with lush settings and characters. Yes, the plot has changed substantially and, yes, Elizabeth Taylor is not especialy proficient as a singer but we must be grateful that this exists at all; Other than in snippets, no Sondheim work has every been transferred to the screen with most, if not all, of the score in tact.

    On the plus side there are great performances, especially by Dame Diana Rigg, Len Cariou and Hermione Gingold. Even young Chloe Franks makes an amusing daughter to Miss Taylor's Desiree. And, as it's been restructured, the burden of the plot does not fall heavily on Miss Taylor. She gives a capable performance if not brilliant but then her character does not call for brilliance but really an understanding of the role, given that, she performs very well. But it is Diana Rigg who's command of the screen holds your attention. Unfortunately, Dame Diana has been too little noticed over the years but when she has appeared, she commands the screen. (Only Maggie Smith in "Evil Under The Sun" could hold her own against her.)

    Len Cariou and Laurence Guittard repeat performances they the gave in the Broadway Stage version and it's easy to understand why they were not replaced with more bankable if less skilled perfomers. Hermione Gingold who would eventually play Madam Armfeldt on the stage gives the perfect reading of a modest if integral role.

    But the triumphant "performance" isn't given by any actor but rather by designer Florence Klotz who's costumes capture the grandeur and exxagerations of the time to perfections. The opening and the closing with all the performers in white could have looked washed out, bland but in her stylings are important and meaningful.

    While not for the taste of everyone, this is a "must own" for anyone who enjoys the musical theatre as, time has shown, very few of that genre are now given further life on the screen.

    The film version of "A Little Night Music" is more like that of "Pal Joey" 20 years before- changing plot, setting, and score- more than like say "Mame". Whereas in "Mame" the movie everyone EXCEPT the star was perfect, "A Little Night Music" isn't nearly as bad as has been reported. Elizabeth Taylor, yes, was hefty but sincere as 'Desiree'. Looking back it is not so much her weight but her hair (!) that hurts her performance. Worn DOWN it looks ghastly, Medusa like, in 'You Must Meet Me Wife'. Otherwise Liz is fine. Okay, yes, the one lyric- 'If She'd only been fat' still gets twitters from a audience, and should have been altered- but to what? Way back at an early film screening in Manhattan, our audience applauded after the very well-staged 'A Weekend in the Country'. And Stephen Sondheim's witty lyrics remain fresh and often hysterically funny (and Diana Rigg was perfection)!

    This film wasn't very well received, but I'm enriched by having this "A Little Night Music" in my movie library... especially after hearing Steve speak in person about making it, and reading about the experience in his book "Look, I Made a Hat." For me, the film works even with its faults. Yeah, the quality of the disc is mediocre, and much of the complex music of the stage version is omitted, BUT this is an interesting watch. If you're into theatre, this is a fantastic learning tool. By now, everyone's heard the "Elizabeth can't sing a note if it were duct-taped to her" story, but I loved what she did with the role of Desiree! The casting was brilliant, with several leads from the Broadway cast reprising their roles. It's all about the music too, and Jonathan Tunick did win an Oscar for his work.

    It's hard to know how to rate this movie. As a movie, it gets 4-1/2. As a rendering of Sondheim's musical, it gets a 1-1/2.

    The movie is excellent and I'm glad to have it. Elizabeth Taylor isn't very good in this role, but most of the others are excellent. My objections are due to the fact that so many of the songs are missing, and the tone of the show is bent out of shape by the movie.

    In addition to several feature songs being eliminated or cut down, the whole concept of the "Greek chorus" is missing. In the original musical, there is a quintet of singers who are not characters in the movie, but stand apart from the action and provide commentary. They generally (always?) sing as a quintet, and they have several numbers. Only one of their songs is included in the movie, and it is sung by various of the featured characters. The Greek chorus quintet is entirely absent.

    Now this is a device which probably works better on a stage than in a movie. So here is my fervent wish: This is one of my very favorite musicals, and I hope that someone will re-do it on film or video, re-instating all the missing music including the Greek chorus, and do it as a filming of a stage production, eliminating all cinematic effects except for use of multiple cameras for different angles and close-ups. This monumental musical deserves this!

    I used to be very disappointed in this version. Not only that songs were cut, but Elizabeth Taylor? Now I realize that she is perfectly cast. “Send in the Clowns” was written specifically for an aging actress who can’t sing. I’m happy with it now. (Though I would still love to see Hermione Gingold’s “Liaisons”)

    4.0 out of 5 stars Much Better Than Expected
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 12, 2013
    Given the generally poor critical response to the film, I was really surprised that I enjoyed it! I am a huge fan of the stage show and there is no getting away from it that moving the piece from Sweden to Vienna does not help it and some of one's favourite songs are missing.

    That said, I knew this was going to be the case and I am reviewing what we have got rather than what we would like to have had. The biggest downside is that we are not looking at a digitally remastered print and there are some scratches visible from time to time. The second is that the third smile of the summer night is somewhat abruptly and confusingly handled.

    What there is to enjoy are the fact the extremely witty dialogue is virtually intact, the performances and what is left of the score. Elizabeth Taylor's take on Desiree is less glamorous than usual but it works very well and, as usual, no one can accuse her of not giving everything to the project. Diana Rigg is superb as the Countess and makes the most of the very witty lines whilst making us very aware that this is a very disturbed lady. Hermione Gingold, shorn of her wonderful "Liaisons" number still sparkles with malicious wit and the rest of the cast, several of whom were in the original Broadway production are very good indeed.

    Would I recommend this? Yes, I would as a film of the show adapted for the screen. The piece has suffered amputations and changes but the important thing is that it is very enjoyable while you are watching it. If you want a record of the original stage show, however, you will be disappointed
