Review of Fiddler on the Roof (1971) by John B — 18 Aug 2013
There is a part of me that has always felt that Fiddler on the Roof downplays the difficulties of the Jews in Eastern Europe. I wondered how it would play as a strict drama rather than as a musical. Nonetheless, Jewison takes great advantage of Topol at his best in putting to a film a Broadway classic with so many wonderful songs.
