Funny Lady

“How Lucky Can You Get!”

Fanny Brice (Barbra Streisand) has divorced Nick Arnstein (Omar Sharif), and in the Depression no one will hire her. Then Billy Rose (James Caan), a newcomer who writes lyrics and owns a nightclub, walks into her life with a pitch of his own. Herbert Ross follows the two of them toward the stage, with Streisand in the spotlight and Caan close behind her.
