I don't even think I've seen the film with Yul Brynner all the way through so I guess we went to see this because it was a big deal that it was on locally and it was likely to be quite glamorous and there would be tunes we knew. I doubt I was bored and I do remember a nice set, but I'm not sure it was the "must-see" I thought it was.
