I earned Bonus Homosexual Points on Saturday night by watching Funny Girl on TCM and the Barbra Streisand concert on CBS - flipping between the two.
Hello Gorgeous! Anywhoo, I must admit that I had never seen Funny Girl before - and I watched the Yankees lose to the Red Sox before my Barbrapalooza. So I'm not really THAT gay...
Oh, who am I kidding? I spent the entire movie thinking about how sexy Omar Sharif was. GAY, GAY, GAY!!!...

I watched the concert too in hi def, and was amazed at how good she looks at 65. Sure, she has a great makeup artist, but man...
ReplyDeleteThe delivery man who presented Barbra Streisand with the yellow roses in the train station sequence in "Funny Girl" was played by New York actor Robert Christian. For some reason which will forever remain a mystery the few lines he spoke were dubbed by someone else. Bob passed away in 1983.
ReplyDeleteI love going to Side Tracks in Chicago where the play the songs from the movie and everyone sings along. And when it comes to the part where she see the ferry, and the "invisible lightbulb" goes off as she realizes she should catch the ferry, they freeze the tape momentarily and the entire crowd screams at the screen :"Run, Barbra! Run!" CLASSIC!
ReplyDeleteFlipping between "Funny Girl" and a Babs concert on TV? That's really and truly gay. :-)
