The French remake of JEAN DE FLORETTE ran for more than six months and was a massive success world wide. The TV remake of CASABLANCA was a flop however and it deserved to be.
I saw the film many times in 70mm since it's original release. Don't forget that the 1961 film ran for more than a year in most cities in 1961. I saw it in a Cinerama cinema also several times in the seventies.
