Funny Girl!

Can I start out by saying that Barbra Streisand was, and still is, one of the most beautiful, and talented women of all time!! I am watching Funny Girl, one of my favorite movies, and she is simply a GENIUS!!! Her character, Fanny Bryce, embodies so many qualities that I was to have in my own self! Besides the FABULOUS singing voice, that goes without being said, but this character  is a woman who speaks her mind, doesn’t care what others say about her, loves greatly; a risk-taker who has both the drive and passion to get to where she wants to be! AMAZING!!! It is easy for me to see why this movie stands the test of time, and millions of people all over the world love Barbra!!!

Some of my favorite lines from this movie are:

Fanny (to herself in the mirror): Hello, gorgeous.

Fanny: You think beautiful girls are going to stay in style forever? I should say not! Any minute now they’re going to be out! Finished! Then it’ll be my turn!

Fanny: I’m a bagel on a plate full of onion rolls!

Mr. Ziegfeld: Miss Brice, do I have to remind you this is my theatre?
Fanny: So, what, nobody argues with the landlord?

Fanny: Cuz I’m the greatest star, I am by far. But no one knows it.

And of course this movie has my FAVORITE song: Don’t Rain on My Parade, this song almost instantly cheers me up, no matter what is going on!!!!

Maybe I will pop in Funny Lady next, I have never seen that before!

Have a FABULOUS day!! 😉
