Review of Fiddler on the Roof (1971) by Walker — 27 Nov 2008
CONSENSUS: A musical celebration of life, both the joys and heartaches within, and the hope that drives us all. Topol is perfection in the lead, playing the everyday religious man with sincerity, boldness, and humor.
The music is boisterous and beautiful, capturing the mood of each moment precisely and providing a real feel of the Jewish culture. Providing at times heavy subject matter, yet an overall light, family-welcoming tone, this is pleasing to the mind and heart, as well as the eyes.
One of the greatest films ever produced and the greatest movie musical in film history. MY GRADE: A+.
