Customer Reviews of Fiddler on the Roof (Special Edition)
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful I don't know what I like better, the story or the music. The performances are absolutely riveting, convincing, hysterical. This movie gives the viewers a juicy taste of Jewish culture, with classic signature songs like "Rich Man" and "Sunrise, Sunset." I love it for its flawless humor. Fiddler on the Roof is definitely a keeper!
Musical Masterpiece
One of the last great musicals Hollywood has given us. Topol shines brightly in this Norman Jewison directed marvel. Visually and musically stunning, A perfect film to make one laugh, cry, sing-along and think. Why don't we get many others like it today? One of my very favorite musicals. Favorite films for that matter. Cast to perfection.
Fantastic!
Fantastic musical. Fiddler on the Roof tells the story of Tevya, and his family, coming to grips with changes in a small village Tzarist Russia. Changes to the vaunted Tradition first come small, in the form of his daughters wanting to pick their own spouses. It gets worse as the village confronts anti-semitism.

>The music is classic - hard to imagine anyone not knowing at least half the score already. Tradition, Sunrise Sunset, L'haim to name a few... And Topol... It is safe to say he was born to play Tevya.

>The irony is dark, and much is shown, but not told. Is the breaking of tradition good or bad? Where do traditions come from? Is moving on ultimately a bad or good thing?

>DVD add-ins include extensive commentary from the director, Norman Jewison, who adds light and historical context to the story and it's making. Well worth catching those as well.
