Criterion Reflections – Episode 78 – Norman Jewison’s Fiddler on the Roof

David and guests go deep and long in discussing the music, the movie, the theatrical production and the overall phenomenon of this timeless classic and cultural landmark.

Criterion Reflections is David Blakeslee’s ongoing project to watch all of the films included in the Criterion Collection in chronological order of their original release. Each episode of this third season of the podcast features conversations with a variety of guests offering insights on movies that originally premiered in 1971 and were destined to eventually bear the Criterion imprint. In this episode, David is joined by Jason Beamish, Robert Cioffi, and William Remmers to discuss Fiddler on the Roof, directed by Norman Jewison.
