Description

Barbra Steisand is back and she's better than ever as the exuberant Fanny Brice in FUNNY LADY, sequel to acclaimed Academy Award(r) winner, (Barbra Streisand as Best Actress, 1968) Funny Girl. This lively, lavish musical opens a new chapter in Fanny's career and love life. Now divorced from wealthy Nick Arnstein (Omar Sharif), she teams up with songwriter Billy Rose (James Caan), a brash and unkempt showman who is bursting with enthusiasm and theatrical ambitions. They make an unusual couple, the polished performer and the upstart producer, but a friendship blossoms into love. FUNNY LADY is the poignant story of their show business magic, their unbridled temperaments, and their touching, bittersweet romance. Featuring dazzling production numbers, elegant costuming by Bob Mackie and an electric cast. Streisand is a FUNNY LADY you'll never forget!

    This one is less about music and more about the story of Fanny. Barbra's acting is so pure and she made me laugh after every word!! Great movie!!

    The acting was great, the songs were superb,( why doesn't iTunes have the soundtrack?!?!?) but as far as the story goes and the way it ends, thumbs down.

  • Let's have the soundtrack

    It's always more fun to root for the underdog and watch someone become a success—which made Funny Girl so enjoyable. The sequel looks more at Fanny Brice than Barbra Streisand, so it's a story about maturing and settling for less. Of course, the film is funny along the way, James Caan was a great screen partner for Barbra, and there's lots of music, period and original, beautifully performed. So, could we have the soundtrack? Not the 1998 remastered version (with alternate takes not in the film, too much fiddling with the balance, shrill strings, and muffled winds and brass) but the original CD tracks— not quite state-of-the-art, but it sounds like a live performance, rather than an exercise for the engineers. That would be nice.

  • aaaaaabsolutely good movie
