Brighton Beach Memoirs

Back in the day I taped this off HBO and our family watched it over and over. Funny and heartwarming. This was Jonathan Silvermans debut and he is great as the teenage Jewish kid growing up in Brooklyn in the years before WWII. The family deals with their personal conflicts and social issues, but there isnt anything preachy about the message. The ensemble cast turns in a wonderful performance and the writing is, well, Neil Simon. Translated beautifully on the big screen.

I bought this as the videos take up to much space. Every time I watch it, I find something new that I did not notice before

A really good movie that I could relate to.

Very enjoyable film. Casting was on-target!

Very funny

New movie in new condition. Not the best movie ever made but I wanted it to see the story because Im doing the play. It served its purpose.

Its an awesome movie, especially for anyone that knows the area. The plot was good and it was basically an enjoyable movie.

Loved this ! Have seen it years ago and just loved it. It is so funny and a cute movie too.

this movie has ben around a whale. have seen it maney times. i have showed it to maaney times here. i live in a senior houseing .its because of the a place in time. late 30s end earley 40s.i don/t know if can ! but but there is another movie called (radio days) it is in same era but different producers. also avalabel both are great movies. good for all ages.young and (old)

This is the first of two movies that are supposedly auto biographical for Neil Simon. Very good slice of life movie of a Jewish family just before WWII. Introducing Jonathan Silverman. Very enjoyable, lots of laughs and perhaps a cry.
