Movie Review: **A Little Night Music (1977)

 This is a 1977 movie version of the Stephen Sondheim Musical, which I got through DVD Netflix.  I got this to listen to some Sondheim music, and to hear the song “Send in the Clowns.”  Turns out those were the only things to recommend this movie.  It was a story of bad, irresponsible love, which in the end it says at least we get to fix our mistakes.  I don’t think “fixing your mistakes” really fixed the broken hearts and the pain the characters endured, because of illegitimate relations.  I really didn't care for the story.  Elizabeth Taylor, singing “Send in the Clowns” could not save this show.
