WONDERFUL WONDERFUL AND WONDERFUL - oh guys, I have no words to describe how much I love this movie, the fourth time I watch it and it always surprises me - for me, there is no couple with more chemistry than Barbra and Omar in this movie (not until today hahaha) - the movie has some kind of silly stereotypes, but for his time, I prefer not to complain, it's not to much - I love the songs, I love Barbra's acting (which earned an Oscar in her first film work...always gag hhahah) - Honestly, for me, it's a movie in the right measure!!! - I'll always have fun with it, sing all the songs together... it's 10\10 without fear of being happy

I love Barbara Streisand and Hello Dolly is one of my favorite musicals, but for whatever reason I had never gotten around to seeing this movie. No matter what you have to say about the movie itself, there's no denying that the music is amazing. And Barbara's sings those songs like no one else. The songs "second hand rose" and "my man" were Danny's most well known songs in real life. And beyond the music, the acting is very well done. Barbara gives a lively and emotional performance and I loved all the character that she brought to the role. This is definitely worth seeing and a Barbara classic.

The editing is a bit flawed, but what doesn't work out, Barbra will sing. ;)

Barbra Streisand is simply superb in this depiction of the early life of Vaudeville girl and more Fanny Brice. From her humble beginnings, and with the help of her friend Eddie Ryan (Lee Allen) we see her come to the attention of the mighty Florenz Ziegfeld (Walter Pidgeon) before her career becomes More
