But the middle 100 minutes of the movie are charming and moving and surprisingly interesting. A lot of the charm comes from the cheerful high energy of the actors, not only Streisand (who gives her best performance) but also Mandy Patinkin, as her long-suffering roommate, and Amy Irving, as the girl Patinkin loves and Streisand marries.

Nov 17, 2023 · Here at Hey Alma, we published a style retrospective celebrating her iconic fashion over the decades. And tomorrow, Nov. 18, her gender-bending masterpiece film “Yentl” turns 40. While discussing Babs in depth in our Hey Alma office Slack, as you do, the entire team realized something shocking: None of us had ever actually seen “Yentl.”.
A beautiful directorial debut. Yentl gives a good picture of Jewish life in the late 19th and early 20th Century. The rigid gender roles become the fodder of a gender-disguise comedy, but the writers don't present us the predictable romantic comedy ending.

By Staff (Not Credited) FULL REVIEW. See All 11 Critic Reviews. 1. linten234. I give 1 point simply because it gives an insight into life in the Shtetl in Eastern Europe in the early 1900's. However, from the very first speaking scenes, the movie is a joke. Everyone is speaking English in an Eastern European shtetl.
