FACT CHECKS:

At 4:53, I quote 'Herman Goldman' when in fact it's HERBERT G. GOLDMAN who wrote "Fanny Brice: The Original Funny Girl" (1994)
At 16:50, I say that Garson Kanin had never directed a musical. This is wrong. In 1960, he directed "Do Re Mi" (which had a score by Jule Styne) and even wrote the book.
