Good Neighbor Sam
Sam Bissell is an advertising executive who loves his wife, Min, and his family as much as he loves peace and quiet. When Janet Lagerlof, an old acquaintance, inherits a sizable fortune, Bissell is talked into pretending to be her husband in order to fulfill a legal requirement. Things get even more complicated when Ms. Lagerlof is introduced to Bissell's employer, Simon Nurdlinger, as Mrs. Bissell.
His Girl Friday

But when Hildy discovers Williams may be innocent, her reporter instincts take over.
Funny Girl
In this bittersweet, classic musical drama, the vibrant and beautiful young Fanny Brice (Barbra Streisand) starts out as a bit player on the New York City vaudeville stage, but works her way up to stardom on Broadway. Valued for her vocal and comedic talents by the renowned theater impresario Florenz Ziegfeld (Walter Pidgeon), Fanny thrives, but her relationship with her suave, imprisoned businessman husband, Nick Arnstein (Omar Sharif), is another story.
Oliver!

We Were Strangers

All they need to do is to dig an underground tunnel from China's house to the cemetery next door.
