Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Sensitive and moving tale of the romance of two individuals whose political and religious ideologies are exact opposites. Streisand plays a Jewish student radical in love with a conservative young Protestant writer.
Genre: Feature Film-Drama
Rating: PG
Release Date: 3-JUL-2007
Media Type: DVD

Amazon.com essential video:
Robert Redford and Barbra Streisand star as sociopolitical opposites--he's a WASP novelist, she's an activist--who nevertheless strike up a romance in the 1930s, and have a rocky relationship through the next two decades that reflects much of America's history. An essential part of the movie--the Hollywood blacklist and the McCarthy witch- hunt years--comes across as a botch, due to some excessive cutting before the film was released. But except for that hole in the heart of the story, director Sydney Pollack (Out of Africa) has crafted a strong and moving drama about two interesting characters. Redford (always good with Pollack) is at the height of his powers, and Streisand is persuasive. --Tom Keogh

I love, love, love, love, love this movie. It's fantastic! I'll be honest, I got this movie because I remember the infamous gals from Sex and the City talking about it in one of the episodes. I'm glad they 'introduced' me to this movie. It is awesome!

This is a movie classic. This movie will tug at your heart- if you ever shared a deep love for someone you couldn't have you'll see what I mean when you watch this movie. Just hearing Barbra Striesand sing in this movie is a plus in itself.

- If you love Streisand...........
You have to see this; it's a very mature love story with strong political undertones and two people who feel they cannot settle for anything less than their dreams.

Streisand has been an actress that appears to have a love/hate effect on the audience; you either love her or hate her, for whatever reason. She has a strong personality in real life and the director allows her character to show it full force in this film. It's a classic that needs to be seen more often. It is more of ... Read More

- ..."BUT IT'S LAUGHTER WE'LL REMEMBER"
The real tragedy of this movie is the apparent disconnect of the title song, found on many Barbra Streisand recordings, and the picture itself. This is one mature love story,beautifully photographed, and very well acted by Redford and Streisand.Released during the Vietnam era,the picture is a breath of fresh air, even though the film portrays protests of the 1940's and 1950's. That's the rub: Streisand's jumping from one underdog cause to another finally dooms the love relationship with Redford(no ... Read More

This movie always moves me. This happens frequently in life. You love someone but your differences are too great to stay together....doesn't mean you don't love them you just can't live with them. A must see!
