The documentary 'Fiddler's Journey to the Big Screen' chronicles the 1971 film adaptation of the beloved Broadway musical 'Fiddler on the Roof.'
Raim is blessed with a lively, moving and insightful collection of interviews — shot at various points between 2000 and 2021 — with such “Fiddler” players as the visionary Jewison; Topol, who starred as poor Jewish milkman Tevye; co-stars Rosalind Harris, Michele Marsh and Neva Small ; conductor and arranger John Williams; production designer Robert F. Boyle; and lyricist Sheldon Harnick .
Former Times film critic and Yiddish Book Center board memberThe doc is, at heart, a much-deserved love letter to the long and socially conscious career of the Toronto-born, a seven-time Oscar nominee and recipient of the academy’s Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award in 1999. He shares a wealth of fascinating and amusing stories about the casting, preproduction, production and release of “Fiddler” , as well as the common misperception that, because of his surname, Jewison must be Jewish.
