內容簡介
百變女郎芭芭拉．史翠珊全盛時期攝影集。
她以歌手身分走進演藝圈，曼妙綿長的嗓音，助她在1963年獲得葛萊美獎，進而在1968年以音樂劇電影《妙女郎》奪得奧斯卡金像獎最佳女主角獎。1970年的《生活》雜誌刊登了她自述的故事，篇名〈我到底是誰？〉，正是本書的兩位攝影師Steve Schapiro與Lawrence Schiller想提問的。這兩位知名的攝影記者，以影像紀錄了芭芭拉．史翠珊在好萊塢發展的最初五年，展現明星假面下真實的芭芭拉。
除了豐富的照片，還有史翠珊的各種小故事，以及她在幕後的活動剪影，部分照片收錄自之前限量發行的攝影集，是史翠珊迷必定要珍藏的一本書。
本書包含了史翠珊在好萊塢最初10年所拍攝的電影內容與花絮，如：《妙女郎》、《姻緣訂三生》、《往日情懷》、《俏冤家》、《主婦狂想曲》、《俏佳人》與《星夢淚痕》。還有與她相識的戀人、導演、密友和同儕們對她的看法或與她相處的故事，其中包括她的前夫艾略特．高德、導演薛尼．波拉克、演員奧瑪．雪瑞夫以及《往日情懷》男主角勞勃．瑞福等，全方位展現這位能歌、能舞、能演、能寫又能導的女明星風采。
Pitch perfect
From Funny Girl to A Star Is Born, the meteoric rise of Barbra Streisand
In 1970 Barbra Streisand published a story in Life magazine titled “Who Am I Anyway?” It was the very question two leading photojournalists of the day–Steve Schapiro and Lawrence Schiller–were also asking as they photographed her during her first five years in Hollywood, working to get beneath the veneer and capture “the real Barbra.”
Brimming with photographs, stories, and behind-the-scenes shots from Schapiro and Schiller, and previously available only as a limited edition, this is a must-have collection for any Streisand fan. All the best movies of Streisand’s first Hollywood decade are here: Funny Girl, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, The Way We Were, The Owl and the Pussycat, Up the Sandbox, Funny Lady, and A Star Is Born. So too are her loves, directors, confidants, and costars: Elliott Gould, William Wyler, Sydney Pollack, Vincente Minnelli, Cis Corman, Omar Sharif, Kris Kristofferson, and, of course, Robert Redford.
Through it all a picture emerges not of a singer who could act, but of an actress who could sing, write, direct, dance, and do just about anything she put her mind to.
