Query: Isaac Bashevis Singer Trivialized

It would take quite an achievement to turn Singer's mavelous writing into something more or less like a Lifetime Network made for TV special. The beauty and sensitivity of his writing and characterizations winds up lost in a vortex of Babs' narcissism and the result is close to sacrilegious. One can clearly see the level of Streisand's abilities in the conversion of such a timeless literary masterpiece into a pure exercise in kitsch and cliche, while perpetually playing "mirror, mirror on the wall...." Judging from the reactions often on Amy Irving's and Mandy Patinkin's faces, they were both perceptive enough to know it, but classy enough not to come out and say so. If abasement of the wonderful culture of the prewar Eastern European shtetls is a major avocation, this one is not to be missed and ranks up there with Jerry Lewis' magisterial The Day the Clown Cried.
