THE ZANY ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD
1984
100 min.
George Segal, Morgan Fairchild, Roddy McDowall, Janet Suzman, Kenneth Griffith, Michael Hordern, Tom Baker. Directed by
Ray Austin.
It might have looked funny on paper, but aside from one or two bright spots this spoof fizzles and makes the viewer
pine for another go at Mel Brooks' short-lived series WHEN THINGS WERE ROTTEN. Average.
ZIEGFELD: THE MAN AND HIS WOMAN
1978
150 min.
Paul Shenar, Samantha Eggar, Barbara Parkins, Pamela Peadon, Valerie Perrine, Inga Swenson, Ron Hussman, Nehemiah
Persoff, David Opatshu. Directed by Buzz Kulik.
A flashy, sumptuously mounted account of the life and time of Flo Ziefeld, as told by the women in his life: Billie
Burke (Eggar), Anna Held (Parkins), Marilyn Miller (Peadon) and Lillian Lorraine (Perrine). Shenar is miscast in the
pivotal title role. Script by Joanna Lee. Average.
