Lunch Break Video: Hilarious SCTV skit “Rich & Jealous” with Andrea Martin as Barbra Streisand

Have you ever seen the 1981 film Rich & Famous starring Candice Bergen and Jacqueline Bissett?

It’s an updated version of the classic Bette Davis flick Old Acquaintance and it is quite delicious (and directed by George Cukor).

A few years later, SCTV did this superb parody called Rich & Jealous with Barbra Streisand and Ruth Gordon as the main characters. The story has them as women who were once college roommates who are now rivals for fame and fortune.

The always brilliant Andrea Martin is a hoot as Streisand and Valri Bromfield really captures Gordon who won the Academy Award for Rosemary’s Baby.
