HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME (1957) - VHS

The long-sought after version of the Victor Hugo story. A french production with the terrific Anthony Quinn and Gina Lollobrigida. In color with the Quasimodo tale interwoven with some sub-plot of alchemy and torture chambers. A truly touching ending. While it's hard to compare with the two classics that came before (the Chaney and Laughton versions), this has it's own charm in a different way. Restored to its 110 minute theatrical running time.
