"I can't help but think back to the people who built this industry, Streisand said. "Ironically, they were also escaping their own troubles. Men like Shuel Gelfish, who changed his name to Samuel Goldwyn, Eliezar Meir who became Louis B. Mayer and the four Wonskolazer brothers who became Warner Brothers. They were all fleeing the prejudice they faced in eastern Europe, simply because of their religion. And they were dreamers too, like all of us here tonight. And now I dream of a world where such prejudice was a thing of the past."

Some movies are interesting to watch. But most of the Movies contain Violence and Murder and Erotic and Evil Comedy.

Maybe she should take a good look around
She is a far left loon. Maybe she should take a good look around at all the people and movements she thought were her friends but now want to kill her and the rest of the Jews. Many leftist Jews received a wake up call with October 7th and the tsunami of leftist antisemitism that followed. They were clueless to this all along and were shocked when it hit them. I’m not sure Barbara Streisand will ever wake up, she’s too far gone, but many leftist Jews did.
