Yentl

Movie • 1983 • Talk  

Report
Rebbe Mendel is a single father who teaches the Talmud, a sacred text of Judaism, to the boys of his small Polish town. Behind closed doors, he also instructs his daughter, Yentl, despite the fact that girls are forbidden to study religious scripture. When Yentl's father dies, she still has a strong desire to learn about her faith -- so she disguises herself as a male, enrolls in a religious school, and unexpectedly finds love along the way.

At the climax of the film, Avigdor screams in Yentl’s face while shaking her whole body back and forth. It does not escalate past that.

Mandy Patinkin/Avigdor is almost fully nude during a swimming scene, with only his genitals covered by water and then his leg. The scene is played for humor. Barbra Streisand/Yentl wears a shirt that is partially see-through. She takes it off and the character is topless but we don’t see anything because the film angle switches to her back.
