Fiddler on the roof

به نام خداوند بخشنده بخشایشگر

 

امروز Fiddler on the roof رو دیدم.

فیلم معمولی بود، صرفا به دلیل موضوعش که در مورد زندگی یهودی‌ها بود نگاه کردم.

بازیگران مطرحی نداشت و فیلم درجه یکی هم نبود، اما موسیقی‌های یهودی خیلی خوبی داشت. چهره‌ها کاملا یهودی {خصوصا دخترها} بودن چون بازیگرها احتمالا خیلی زیاد یهودی بودن. چقدر خوب بود. قیافه‌ها کاملا قیافه‌ی یهودی‌های گتوهای ییدیش.

حالا ما اگه بخوایم فیلم تاریخی هم بسازیم، همسر فرعون دماغش رو عمل کرده!

فیلمش موضوع فوق‌العاده‌ای داشت. سکولاریزه شدن جامعه‌ی یهودی اوکراین و اون طرف‌ها

فیلم پر از موسیقی بود که یکیش مثل if i were a rich man خیلی مزخرف بود، اما یکی دو تا موسیقیش جالب بود.

یه موسیقیش هم محتوای خنده‌داری داشت:

 

Hodel, oh Hodel, have I made a match for you.
He's handsome! He's young! All right, he's 62.
But he's a nice man, a good catch. True? True!
I promise you'll be happy. And even if you're not,
There's more to life than that. Don't ask me what!

Chava! I've found him! Will you be a lucky bride!
He's handsome. He's tall! That is, from side to side.
But he's a nice man, a good catch, Right? Right!
You've heard he has a temper. He'll beat you every night.
But only when he's sober- so you're all right!

Did you think you'd get a prince?
Well I do the best I can.
With no dowry, no money, no family background,
Be glad you got a man!

Matchmaker, matchmaker, you know that I'm
Still very young. Please, take your time.
Up to this minute, I've misunderstood
That I could get stuck for good.

Dear Yenta, see that he's gentle.
Remember, you were also a bride.
It's not that I'm sentimental.
It's just that I'm terrified!

Matchmaker, matchmaker, plan me no plans.
I'm in no rush. maybe I've learned
Playing with matches a girl can get burned.
So bring me no ring, groom me no groom,
Find me no find, catch me no catch.
Unless he's a matchless match!
