Fresh from the
overwhelming triumph MY NAME IS BARBRA, CBS network executives requested
a follow-up special. It is a show-business axiom that sequels generally
fail to live up to the original, but in the case of COLOR ME BARBRA, the
odds were most assuredly beaten by a wide margin. Filmed in spectacular
color, this companion piece to her first special is one for the ages.
The vibrant colors become a metaphor for imagination, inventiveness,
fantasy, and sheer brilliance. Considered by many to be a "bookend" to
MY NAME IS BARBRA -- COLOR ME BARBRA is in every way the equal of its
predecessor.
THE FACTS:
- Color/approximately

Barbra is the
"top-billed act" in this affectionate tribute to turn of the century
vaudeville. No detail was too small for this lovingly re-created world
of a bygone era. Her only television special to feature guest-stars, THE
BELLE OF 14TH STREET celebrates, in ways both comedic and heartfelt,
"The Golden Age Of Song." A marvelous showcase for such evergreens as
Sophie Tucker's "Some Of These Days," "How About Me?" (written by "a new
young talent" Irving Berlin), the poignant "I'm Always Chasing
Rainbows," and the sublime "My Buddy" -- all classics of the vaudeville
era, reinvented by "the greatest star" of our time.
THE FACTS:
- Color/approximately
58 minutes.
