ON A CLEAR DAY YOU CAN SEE FOREVER is based loosely on the 1929 play Berkeley Square by John L. Balderston. In order to quit smoking, Daisy Gamble seeks help from a psychiatrist, Dr. Mark Bruckner. Under hypnosis, Daisy describes memories of her 18th-century London life as Melinda Wells. A special relationship develops as Mark helps Daisy come to terms with reincarnation and her special ESP abilities.
Although she started her professional life on stage and with her studio recordings, she skyrocketed to fame in the late 1960s with the start of her film career. Check out our complete guide to Barbra Streisand singing and dancing on screen.
