Fiddler on the
Roof 1971
- Director: Norman Jewison
- Based on stories by Sholom Aleichem
- Cast: Topol, Norma Crane, Leonard Frey, Molly Picon, Paul Mann, Rosalind Harris, Michele Marsh, Neva Small, Paul Michael Glaser, Ray Lovelock, Louis Zorich
- Personal “oh yeah him/her” reaction, i.e. have seen this actor in:
- Norma Crane – various TV series in the 60s
- Leonard Frey – Mary
Tyler Moore Show, Tell Me that You
Love Me Junie Moon
- Why? An old favourite
- Seen: Four or five times before. Now 3 January 2020
Why is this a favourite? Briefly: it’s a
musical, the songs are great and the lyrics clever. It’s history. There’s even
a little revolution. What more could one ask? Well, a lot less religion would
be nice but it’s relatively inoffensive.
