Synopsis
On a Clear Day You Can See Forever (1970) — watch online on iFILM. Directed by Vincente Minnelli in his final studio feature, this musical fantasy stars Barbra Streisand and Yves Montand.
Daisy Gamble visits a hypnotherapist to kick the cigarette habit. What her doctor discovers instead: she slips into past lives under hypnosis. One of them — an aristocratic Englishwoman from the 1700s — consumes him entirely. He falls in love with her, forgetting there's a very real, very present woman in his chair. Bob Newhart plays the skeptical colleague; Jack Nicholson turns up in an early supporting role.
The film is based on the 1965 Broadway musical with music by Burton Lane. Minnelli's production leans into the contrast: Daisy's drab modern life against the saturated period fantasy of her past self's world. Stream On a Clear Day You Can See Forever online on iFILM.
