20. Funny Girl (1968)
Can you imagine today's pop machinery making a star out of someone as unusual looking as Barbra Streisand? She keeps this biopic of Fanny Brice, her movie debut, from becoming completely soggy in the second half, and takes her vowel-bending vocals to spine-tingling places in ''People'' and ''I'm the Greatest Star.'' Homage alert: The belting-out-on-a-tugboat shot that caps ''Don't Rain on My Parade'' shows up transposed to a garbage truck in Hairspray.
