Brighton Beach Memoirs

Love this movie. Was hard to find thanks for having it. Love the script

Growing up in Brooklyn in the 1930s. A teenaged boys anxiety to get older makes a great story. Comedy, and touching moments make this a good one. Great movie by Neil Simon.

One of my favorite all-time movies. Had it at one time. It disappeared. Needed another one. Can watch it over and over.

Funny, wise, ironic and fabulous film!

Neil Simon’s movie version of the play is nostalgic, funny, sometimes a bit raw, and witty. Growing up teetering on the edge of financial ruin caused Neil Simon to find humor in pain and loss. This movie reveals the family dynamic and love with deft comic touches. Memorable.

Neil Simon is one of the greats and this explains why. He wasnt as prolific as Woody Allen but he hits it out of the ball park every single time. He was an innovator and ahead of his time with this piece--utilizing techniques of straight to camera and faux documentary that we take for granted now. Ive seen this a dozen times and it never loses its humor, poignancy and a certain sad nostalgia for a bygone era that is done without an ounce of sentimentality. The key scene between Blanche and her daughter Nora is dead on now and probably will be forever, because great writing transcends time. These are people experiencing the basic human things we all experience and that is what makes Simon one of the greats.

One of my all time favorites. I used to watch it all the time when my kids were little. Now they watch it often.

Have seen this movie several times, and I never get tired of seeing it, its one of those feel good movies, makes you laugh!!

Loved this movie
