Editorial Review:
Product Description: When a chain smoker consults a psychiatrist to stop smoking he discovers her ESP powers that reveal former incarnations. Genre: Feature Film-Comedy Rating: G Release Date: 10-APR-2007 Media Type: DVD
Amazon.com: When a psychiatrist (Yves Montand) begins talking to a young woman (Barbra Streisand), he realizes that she can recall a past life while under hypnosis. Although this brash New Yorker is thoroughly modern and somewhat abrasive, he becomes fascinated by the 19th-century English woman who speaks through her. This oddball musical flicks back and forth between period flashbacks and modern times, which may be one reason it never builds up much power in either realm. On a Clear Day You Can See Forever failed at the box office in 1970, one of a number of glossy musicals that could not find an audience in the post-Easy Rider movie world. In fact, one of the film's out-of-place costars is Jack Nicholson, a symbol of the new movies that were making old-fashioned musicals a thing of the past. It didn't help that Paramount severely cut On a Clear Day before releasing it. For all that, the picture is enjoyable and--at the end--really quite touching. Director Vincente Minnelli (Meet Me in St. Louis), then near the close of a fabulous career, maintains his usual careful eye for color and design, and keeps Streisand relatively restrained--for Streisand, that is. --Robert Horton

Average Rating: 
Rating: - straight streisand fan
what a pretty story. I found the transformation between her two parts amazing. It's no wonder she has the rep she does. I fell in love with Daisy.
Rating: - My Name is Melinda! Go to Sleep Go to Sleep Go to Sleep!
Barbra Streisand's best work is in this movie! Too much fun and watchable more then once.
Rating: - Super Streisand
If you need to escape for a few hours, put in this DVD, sit back and enjoy. On a Clear Day will remind you why Barbra Streisand is a legend in her own time. There will never be anyone with the voice, the humor, the class, and the heart of Barbra as Daisy Gamble. She is absolutely super! Her version of the title song will stay with you long after you press the eject button. In this day of supposed musical divas (You can fill in the names here.), it is a pleasure to see a real musical diva at ... Read More
Rating: - hooray for the 60s
Hadn't seen this movie since I was a kid until now...seeing it again as an adult, I still loved the musical numbers and the colorful clash of 60s jaded realism with counterculture's fanaticism with mysticism. The--ahem--imaginative impressions of period Regency costume look almost laughably colorful and polyester compared to the more historically accurate period films that have come out in recent years, but overall, I still enjoy this movie. The DVD unfortunately has no special features, but it's ... Read More
Rating: - Open your mind to possibilities
this film is absolutely spiritual - and mind opening - everything is possible - just because you can see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist - and as always Barbra is phenomenal! The title song is a classic and might actually become a part of you - it has for me!
