I Always Have Called Her a Focker

Speculation has swirled for weeks now but it has has been confirmed:Barbara Streisand is set to play Ben Stiller's mom, Mrs. Focker, in the soon to shoot sequel to "Meet the Parents." The report is that she will play the lecturing liberal mom, so it is good to hear that she is stretching herself to avoid getting typecast.

I understand that the final piece of negotiations involved returning director Jay Roach being required to shoot Babs with the compulsory angelic overhead-lighting effect that has become a Streisand staple to her appearing on camera.
