Good story, songs, acting, I don't understand why this is not released as a Region 1 DVD. However, multi-region DVD players are now available for low cost. I bought one especially so my wife, a Streisand enthusiast, could see this movie. We were not disappointed.

Unfortunately, this was a result of my hubby's first online shopping attempt. I love the movie Yentl, and had requested it for years, however, this is a REGION 2 DVD and will not work in the US. Apparently they have never released it on DVD for the us. I don't understand that. Barbra Streisand has many diehard fans who would love this movie. Yes, she sings a lot in it... that's why we love her. Mandy Patinkin and Amy Irving are just wonderful and of course Barbra is at her best. It has serious moments, romantic moments, and funny moments. One of my favorite old school films. In the meantime, I have purchased a VHS copy to tide me over.

This DVD will not play on my DVD player it says wrong region, what a rip off!

This film is quite simply the worst bomb of all time. The plot is so ghastly that when you describe it to people they think you are kidding. This is a horrible film, and if I had to place bets I would bet that in all history no one has ever gone back to see it twice.

The plot is about a woman marrying another woman while pretending to be a man. I swear to God. Streisand plays the lead, and she is as unappealing as anything you can imagine.

You cannot make this stuff up.

Run, don't walk, away from this bomb.

Don't buy this particular DVD because it's incompatible with an american dvd player. No where online does it tell you this.
