Funny Girl

ComedyDramaMusicalRomance155 min

Fanny Brice claws her way from New York’s Jewish slums to the Ziegfeld Follies, turning awkward auditions and comic nerve into a career on the 1930s stage. Barbra Streisand is Fanny, a performer whose style keeps colliding with what show business expects a star to look like. As her profile rises, Omar Sharif’s Nick Arnstein enters the picture — a polished gambler whose romance with Fanny grows alongside the pressures of fame, money, and marriage. The film follows her early career and public ascent while keeping one eye on the relationship that complicates her life offstage.
