Funny Girl

“Funny Girl. Funny Girl! Babs. Love her. Love her. I remember watching it when I was younger and just relating hard to it all, of feeling like the funny one, but who wanted to be the pretty romantic lead, but felt like I was destined to be the weird, Funny Girl. But I love the weird, funny girls. Now I understand that’s the way to do it. It’s actually the best thing to be.”

“Funny Girl. Once again, we know the players. I got to work with Omar Sharif in England. He was deeply, deeply charming. And I asked him, “Of all your leading ladies, who were you the most in love with?” And it was Ms. Barbra Streisand. She famously has a sort of mall underneath her guesthouse. And there’s this beautiful room with this glass window, and in the window is the dress, the famous black-and-white dress from Funny Girl.”
