Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl But that was thirty years ago, when they used to have a show Now it's the disco, but not for Lola Still in the dress she used to wear, faded feathers in her hair She sits there so refined, and drinks herself half-blind She lost her youth and she lost her Tony Now she's lost her mind! At the Copa, (Co) Copacabana (Copacabana) The hottest spot north of Havana, (here) At the Copa, (Co) Copacabana (Copacabana) Music and passion were always the fashion At the Copa ...

r/lostmedia on Reddit: Copacabana (1985)

December 23, 2021 -

Hiya! For the past month or so, I've been obsessed with listening to Barry Manilow's song "Copacabana" (At the Copa.) And, after scrolling through article after article about the man himself and the creation of the song, I found out that there was a movie made surrounding the plot of the song.

I instantly knew I HAD to watch this thing, but there's one problem. I cannot. find. this. movie. ANYWHERE. I've been actively searching for a while now, but I can't find the movie itself. I've been reviews, posters, even a trailer on YouTube, but no movie. I checked archives--no movie. Basically, here's what I know.

The movie aired on CBS in 1985 as a direct to TV movie. Barry Manilow himself stars in it and is in practically all the promotional material.
There's been a few showings of it in theatres, but the last one I could find was in 2018 through a blogpost.
The thing is definitely out there somewhere. There are plenty of reviews for it on websites like IMDB or other tinier review sites.

If anyone could help me find it, I'd be very thankful! I need to put this song-related obsession to rest. Thanks!
