I had previously seen this movie but I wanted my granddaughter to see it.  She isn't into musicals but when I explained that Barbra Streisand doesn't sing in this movie (although I am a great fan of her singing) she consented to watching it.  She loved it.  It is a complex movie you can enjoy more than once and each time you see it, some new thought enters your head.  It is loving, hating, exciting, passionate and you go through all of the emotions with the characters.  It also was the first time I had seen Ms. Streisand's son.
