Barbra Streisand’s YENTL Released 42 years ago today. I had a line party for 20 at the Cinerama Dome. I was dressed as a yeshiva boy (of course) and had a life-size record store standup of the “Superman” cover nearby. Barbra show tunes on the ghetto blaster. A grand night, a great film.

Kelly Reichardt’s marvelous 1970s era art heist film, THE MASTERMIND, starring Josh O’ Connor, is leaving theaters but check your local listings. You may only spot one showing, in the middle of your work day. Leave work early. That’s always good for the soul. So is this movie.

The Barbra Streisand autobiography came out two years ago today. It’s crazy long but if you go between the print book and her Audible version, it’s a blast. She ad libs a bit on the Audible—a “Damn” at the end of the Anthony Newley story—and as with the singing voice, each heard breath becomes art.
