Synopsis

Episode image for Barbra Streisand: From the Way We Were... To the Way We Are

Barbra Streisand: From the Way We Were... To the Way We Are - From her home in Malibu, Barbra chats with Academy Award-winning lyricist Don Black. They reminisce on their mutual friends Alan and Marilyn Bergman, on working together and tweaking Don's classic lyrics for "As If We Never Said Goodbye" to make a perfect opening number for her comeback tour after 27 years. These two friends once found themselves competing against each other in the category of Best Original Song at 49th Academy Awards - Don with composer Henry Mancini for "Come to Me" from "The Pink Panther Strikes Back" and Barbra with Paul Williams for "Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born). Tune in to found out who won that particular battle.
