Description:
In 2021, the film *Fiddler on the Roof* celebrated its 50th anniversary, hailed by Pauline Kael of *The New Yorker* as "the most powerful movie musical ever made." *FIDDLER'S JOURNEY TO THE BIG SCREEN*, narrated by Jeff Goldblum, chronicles director Norman Jewison's effort to recreate the world of Jewish life in Tsarist Russia and adapt the popular stage show into a large-screen epic. Director Daniel Raim offers a behind-the-scenes look at Jewison's process, using archival footage, stills, and interviews with Jewison, Topol (who played Tevye), composer John Williams, production designer Robert F. Boyle, film critic Kenneth Turan, lyricist Sheldon Harnick, and actresses Rosalind Harris, Michele Marsh, and Neva Small (Tevye’s daughters). The documentary examines how making *Fiddler on the Roof* profoundly impacted Jewison's artistry and renewed his passion.
