This is a very difficult film to categorize. Drama? Well, sort of. Comedy? Well, maybe a little. Adventure? Kinda, maybe. Action? Nope. But it's sort of a little of all of them (except action). Barbra Streisand stars as a young girl barred from becoming a rabbi by her gender. She wants to learn so she disguises herself as a young boy and goes for it. I won't spoil the ending by telling you whether she makes it or not, but she does a marvelous job in this film. If she ever stops singing, I hope she becomes more active as an actress because she's quite good!
