Fiddler on the Roof
A dairyman in a Ukrainian village argues with God on his rounds while his three eldest daughters each choose a husband further outside the rules he has lived by: a poor tailor, a student radical, and finally a gentile. Between the marriages the Tsar's officers keep arriving with paper. Jewison shot the village in Yugoslavia and had Isaac Stern record the violin solos, and it took three Academy Awards.
