Color Me Barbra (1966) (original) (raw)
Fresh from the overwhelming triumph MY NAME IS BARBRA, CBS network executives requested a follow-up special. It is a show-business axiom that sequels generally fail to live up to the original, but in the case of COLOR ME BARBRA, the odds were most assuredly beaten by a wide margin. Filmed in spectacular color, this companion piece to her first special is one for the ages. The vibrant colors become a metaphor for imagination, inventiveness, fantasy and sheer brilliance. Considered by many to be a bookend to MY NAME IS BARBRA � COLOR ME BARBRA is in every way the equal to its predecessor.
