Classic in its own right, "Fiddler On The Roof" centers on the life of Tevye (Topol), a milkman who is trying to keep his family's traditions in place while marrying off his three older daughters. Yet, times are changing and the daughters want to make their own matches, breaking free of many of the constricting customs required of them by Judaism. In the background of these events, Russia is on the brink of revolution and Jews are feeling increasingly unwelcome in their villages. Tevye--who expresses his desire for sameness in the opening number, "Tradition"--is trying to keep everyone, and everything, together.

The film won 2 Golden Globe awards, for Best Motion Picture, Musical, and Best Actor in a Motion Picture. It also was nominated for 8 Academy Awards, winning 3, including Best Score Adaptation, Best Cinematography, and Best Sound.  The film grossed $83.3 million worldwide.
