¿Sabías que...?
- CuriosidadesBarbra Streisand hand-picked Mandy Patinkin for this movie, and he politely declined several times because he did not like the script. He was eventually invited to Streisand's house where they could discuss the parts he wanted to change. He then agreed to be in the film.
- PifiasThe final scene (on the ship to America) begins with a Jewish child supposedly reading a book, while following his reading with a finger on the lines of text. The book is visibly in Hebrew, language were reading is done from right to left. Yet, the child's finger goes from left to right.
- Citas
Yentl: Why is it that every book I buy, every bookseller has the same old argument?
Yentl's Father: You know why.
Yentl: I envy them.
Yentl's Father: The booksellers?
Yentl: No, not the booksellers, the students. Talking about life, the mysteries of the universe and I'm learning how to tell a herring from a carp.
Yentl's Father: Yentl, for the thousandth time, men and women..."
Yentl: [cuts him off] have different obligations, I know, but...
Yentl's Father: [cuts her off] and don't ask why.
Yentl's Father: [sees her disappointment] Go on, get the book.
Yentl: Thank you, papa!
Yentl's Father: The shutters, darling.
Yentl: We don't have to hide my studying from God, then why the neighbors?
Yentl's Father: Why? Because I trust God will understand. I'm not so sure about the neighbors.

The story has been modified for the film in that the role of Yentl is somewhat older and her internal dialogue is fleshed out in the form of songs. A sort of musical narrative solely from her perspective.
The opening song "Where Is It Written", the soulful "Papa, Can You Hear Me?", "The Way He Makes Me Feel" and the closing "A Piece of Sky" are some of the stand-out performances. This is Streisand's first directing effort and she was the first woman to win a Golden Globe for it. She pulls solid performances from everyone and tells her story with a fresh sense of style rarely seen in film today. There are moments when Streisand lingers a bit long to make sure you "feel" what she is trying to convey. Her subsequent directorial efforts, the 1991 "The Prince of Tides" and the 1996 "The Mirror Has Two Faces" are more fluid. Avigdor's concern over his affection for "Anshel" is not adequately explored, but the "girl marries girl" theme is approached with great humor and tact.
For music fans, check out the "Yentl Medley" from the 1994 "Barbra - The Concert" and the soundtrack album, which contains studio versions of "The Way He Makes Me Feel" and 'No Matter What Happens". Her 1991 box set "Just For the Record" includes "The Moon and I" which was written for this film but never used.
At the end, Streisand dedicates this film to her father, and all our fathers... I'm sure he would be very proud.
