Great Songs!
Funny Girl is an old fashioned musical telling an old fashioned story. The real life star was Fanny Brice, played by Barbra Streisand. The songs are fantastic ( especially My Man and Don?t Rain on my Parade) and the costumes are full of life and color. Omar Shariff is dashing as Nick Arnstein, the gambler husband. Walter Pidgeon is good as Folrenz Ziegfeld. Anne Francis has a small part as Fanny?s showgirl friend. Personally, I would have wanted her role to be a little larger.
