    CLIP DESCRIPTION:
    Tevye (Topol) dreams of fabulous wealth.
    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    Norman Jewison's adaptation of the long-running Broadway musical is set in the Ukranian ghetto village of Anatevka (the film was actually lensed in Yugoslavia). Israeli actor Topol repeats his London stage role as Tevye the milkman, whose equilibrium is constantly being challenged by his poverty, the prejudicial attitudes of non-Jews, and the romantic entanglements of his five daughters. Whenever the weight of the world becomes too much for him, Tevye carries on lengthy conversations with God, who does not answer but is at least more willing to listen than the milkman's remonstrative wife Golde. After arranging a marriage between his oldest daughter Tzeitel and wealthy butcher Lazar Wolf, Tevye is forced to do some quick rearranging when the girl falls in love with poor tailor Motel Kamzoil. Fancying himself more broad-minded than his gentile oppressors, Tevye cannot accept the notion that his other daughter Chava would want to marry Fyedka, a non-Jew. And after shouting the praises of "tradition," Tevye must change his tune-and his entire life-when he and his neighbors are forced out of Anatevka by the Czar's minions. Topol's co-stars include Norma Crane as Golde, Yiddish theater legend Molly Picon as Yente the matchmaker, and Leonard Frey as Motel.

    This was my wife's best movie of all time. I can probably count more than 100 time she watched it in our 42-year marriage. She made me watch it with her a couple times and it grew on me! I wanted to tell my wife that he died yesterday but she already knows because she is up there with him in heaven because she passed away 10 months ago. When I saw this on the news that he died I cried so hard. God bless them both.

    God, he was incredible. He had been performing it something like five years at this time, probably many hundred individual performances on stage. And to still be able to put such pathos, such pain, such rage, such hope... that the sign of a surpassingly great actor. May his memory be a blessing.

    Though I’m not Jewish (I’m Christian), this is one of my childhood favorites growing up and still remains my favorite musical to this day. It’s absolutely brilliant and Topol is the goat Tevye. This movie also came out the same year as The French Connection, The Last Picture Show, Nicholas and Alexandra, Klute, Summer of 42 and A Clockwork Orange so strong year for cinema too.
    EDIT: Found out he passed away. Rest in peace Chaim Topol. You were and will always be a legend.

    If I were a rich man lyrics:
    [TEVYE]
    (spoken)
    Oh Lord, you made many, many poor people. I realize, of course, that it's no shame to be poor, but it's no great honor either. So, what would have been so terrible if I had a small fortune?
    If I were a rich man
    Ya ba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dum
    All day long I'd biddy biddy bum
    If I were a wealthy man
    I wouldn't have to work hard
    Ya ba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dum
    If I were a biddy biddy rich
    Idle-diddle-didle-didle man
    I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen
    Right in the middle of the town
    A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below
    There would be one long staircase just going up
    And one even longer coming down
    And one more leading nowhere, just for show
    I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese and ducks
    For the town to see and hear
    Squawking just as noisly as they can
    And each loud *bird noises*
    Would land like a trumpet on the ear
    As if to say "Here lives a wealthy man"
    Oy, If I were a rich man
    Ya ba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dum
    All day long I'd biddy biddy bum
    If I were a wealthy man
    I wouldn't have to work hard
    Ya ba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dum
    If I were a biddy biddy rich
    Idle-diddle-didle-didle man
    I see my wife, my Golde, looking like a rich man's wife
    With a proper double-chin
    Supervising meals to her heart's delight
    I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock
    Oy, what a happy mood she's in
    Screaming at the servants, day and night
    *Screaming*
    The most important men in town would come to fawn on me
    They would ask me to advise them
    Like a Solomon the Wise
    "If you please, Reb Tevye..."
    "Pardon me, Reb Tevye..."
    Posing problems that would cross a rabbi's eyes
    Ya-da-dee-da-da, Ya-da-dee-da
    And it won't make one bit of difference if I answer right or wrong
    When you're rich, they think you really know

He was so handsome and had a deep beautiful voice and a grin in his face very difficult to be obtained by another actor. I loved this performance back then and still listening the music from youtube videos. Tomorrow saturday November 3, 2019 I will go to the Adrianne Arsh Center in Miami to watch Fiddler on the Roof again. I cannot wait to be there. I love it.
