Funny Lady review sees aging Fanny Brice in sequel
Vincent Canby of the New York Times critiques Funny Lady noting Barbra Streisand as Fanny remains appealing in song and screen presence while the film’s plot turns hollow and tasteless when not singing. Omar Sharif and James Caan play rivals in romance and fame amid a score of standards and new songs.
