Fannie Brice came over much different than I expected. I like her. She photographed well, was slender, vivacious, could be understated, delightful sense of humor and limited the facial eye tricks. She talked naturally in a low key fashion with authority. I could see how she was popular with men and women who liked to laugh, but she didn't overdo it. She just knew the score. Like Gypsy Rose Lee. I was born too late to see her in films, drat! They say she always dressed beautifully. Thank you Geno's House of Rare Films, regardless of how you came into possession of this one.
The professor sez
So you and Gypsy Rose Lee were born too late to see Fanny Brice in films? Me too. Her only TV appearance was on June 12 1950 five days after I was born and I don’t remember it very well. Then she died.
I remember streaming this on Netflix around 2015, back then it was worthwhile
Who cares
I've never seen a Fanny Brice movie before. Great to see this.
What an interesting movie!!
Fannie Brice truly an iconic comedian and entertainer! Love her in this movie essentially about a fight between two tough Irish guys! Robert Armstrong fine in his role and Fannie's brother really hilarious! Thanks for showing this old Hollywood movie!😊
Brice's voice and personality make this one well-worth watching. The plot is of secondary interest.
The film is a glorious excuse to see Fanny perform. Harry Green does a nice turn too. And the cinematography, so clean, Struss shot Sunrise!!!
Fanny Brice from her pre-Baby Snooks days.
The nightclub set reminds me of German Expressionist films like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
Fanny was way more attractive than she was given credit for.
Fanny Brice is extraordinarily talented and what a personality. You can see why she was a great Star. A privilege to watch in this creaky old melodrama.
Watch it. She's good.
Fanny didn't sound like Barbra, but had a great voice also.
Yeah, when I heard Barbra play her, I thought she was all wrong for the role. But she made it her own, I guess. No complaints there, just wondered why she didn't play her as Fanny really was! ♥
Opening song: "Cooking Breakfast for the One I Love" recorded on Victor 22310.
I remember hearing that was one of her signature songs in the '20s and '30s.
Why, I have never known that Fanny Brice was a real person, and how charming and talented she was too! It was a most entertaining film, especially the scene where she did everything to mess up he own performance, and yet people applauded her! Oh, the funny faces she made! To me somehow I have always thought of Fanny Brice as a role Barbra Streisand played in Funny girl, or was that a different girl? Can someone help me out here , with information, please? Thank you
Like myself, it appears that many folks had never seen this film. In this one, we can experience a more rounded picture of Fannie beyond her famous clown persona. She is attractive, beautifully dressed, attentive, and warm. I wonder if Barbra Streisand viewed this film when preparing for her role as Fanny in Funny Girl.
Have never seen - Present Perfect not Past Perfect “ had never seen”.
I love fannie bryce for many years, but i've never seen her do her thing really little clips here and there.This is the first time i've seen her and she is fantastic.I know why she is a star.I don't know what barbra streisand was doing in that show.I saw it on opening night it wasn't a fannie bryce
Robert Armstrong n avait pas encore tourné le chef d oeuvre absolut de Meriam Cooper et Ernest shoedsack le célèbre King Kong.
Didn’t Barbra Streisand play a similar character in one of her movies? She became a manager of a prize fighter. I think it was called “The Main Event.” Coincidence?
No coincidence. Fanny Brice was the inspiration for Funny Girl.
i thought the same thing!

Who's the pageboy? He's great!
I'm sure she was amazing in person. I'm very unhappy that they didn't use babe kane and a number here, a very talented young lady who can really do a dance and sing a song but she didn't.You.These are at all in this room, and it's just wasted
But what happened to Chekhov's gun? Thanks for the upload!
But was it written by Chekov, @aadamtx?
@@coreycox2345 lol Nope, but as Chekhov said, when you show a gun in the first act, it better go off in the final act.
@@aadamtx That's what I was referring to.
So funny how time changes. She was talented and funny thanks for sharing ❤
Go to 7:16 You'll be glad you did.

at 37:36 I'm seeing Barbra!
It's because you want to see Barbara!
They were nothing alike, Brice couldn't be copied!
fanny brice was horrid! thank god barbara streisand was born.
A star for six decades, and half the time people get her name wrong.
@@akrenwinkle why was she a star? at 50 she played a 6 year old., disgusting! her vocal talent was a tenth of ms. streisand
Don't be ignorant.
