Additional InformationTwo classic films starring the timeless performer Barbra Streisand. See individual titles for further details.<BR>FUNNY LADY (UK: PG, 1975): Barbra Streisand returns as Fanny Brice in this sequel to William Wyler's Oscar-winning FUNNY GIRL. FUNNY LADY picks up the saga of entertainer-comedienne Brice after her separation from playboy millionaire Nick Arnstein (Omar Sharif). Newly single, she teams up brash Broadway producer, songwriter, and entrepreneur Billy Rose (James Caan), a showman whose lack of polish is made up in his boundless enthusiasm. Before long, Rose's professional relationship with Fanny turns into a touching and turbulent personal one. Wyler's extravagant production is highlighted by lavish musical numbers, elegant costumes and a dynamic cast, which is lead by Barbra Streisand's signature style and poise.<BR>FUNNY GIRL (UK: U, 1968): In FUNNY GIRL, the highly fictionalized musical biopic, Barbara Streisand makes her film debut in a reprisal of her Broadway role as Ziegfeld star Fanny Brice. Brice, a poor Jewish girl from New York's Lower East Side, rose to fame and won audience's hearts everywhere with her comic antics and powerful singing. Unfortunately, she had far less success in her personal life, and the film focuses on her doomed romance with her first husband, gambler Nicky Arnstein.

Streisand plays multitalented 1920s Jewish comic, Fanny Brice, who rose from the ghetto to be the toast of Ziegfeld's follies. Omar Sharif is the gorgeous, cultured, princely gambler who falls for her. A couple of big numbers, one comically reprising a scene from the famous 1936 Ziegfeld film. A number of smaller songs. A lot of drawn-out drama (typical 1960s). One has to admire Streisand's own many talents, including heavy drama, but the `A Star Is Born' plot of Brice's life is old hat.
Ordered this package I had seen funny girl years ago but not funny lady I am a big fan of barbra streisand they are both lovely films they will make you cry make you laugh must watch films
