For this episode of Close Watch with Robert Yaniz Jr., we raise a glass—L’Chaim!—to one of the most celebrated musicals of all time.
 
Robert is joined by Pete Abeyta of Middle Class Film Class to dive into 1971’s Fiddler on the Roof, Norman Jewison’s sweeping adaptation of the beloved Broadway show. With Topol’s unforgettable performance as Tevye and a soundtrack full of iconic songs, the film captures a family, a village, and an entire way of life on the brink of change.

We explore Fiddler on the Roof’s enduring cultural impact, its powerful themes of tradition versus progress, and how its story still resonates decades later. And, of course, we each rank our top six songs from the film because what’s a discussion about Fiddler on the Roof without a little “Tradition”? Is there an ultimate Fiddler anthem?

Does Fiddler on the Roof strike a chord with modern audiences? Join us as we unpack this iconic film because “there is no other hand.”
