Brighton Beach Memoirs

This is one of my favorite feel-good films with nostalgic quips of ethnic New York families. Silvermans teenager besotted with the female form is so typical of male puberty and adds another hilarious touch to the already saturated comedy. This film is a prize!

Great movie

This without a doubt is Neil Simons best work ever. Only people in their 70s can appreciate the the feel and the way life was back before World War II. Why Blythe Danner didnt win an academy award for her performance I can only say their is no justice. The boy that played Eugene is exactly like young boys were in those days... Movies like this would not entertain young people today. They are too restless, Too technology possessed, too into themselves to care about anybody else. Parents today have no control over their children, its the children controlling the parents

Neil Simon was very astute in his observations when writing this book. The experiences of a nieve young fellows army induction and training in the final months of WWII. I can readily relate to his sudden exposure to the real world and finding it necessary to grow up fast!. This movie is not really for mothers and grandmothers, but fathers and brothers should find it interesting.

Not a bad flick from the past. I liked the cast, So i wanted to get the DVD.

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.

Ive watched this many times. I have mostly noted its humor, but when I recently re-watched it I was much more aware of how much sadness is also captured in this film. For both reasons, it is very well done.

This is not a review of the film. I ordered this DVD with standard shipping and it arrived two days later--ahead of schedule! This company processes and ships their orders very quickly. Although I purchased the DVD as used it came in shrink wrap and contained no scratches. It was as if it had never been open or even watched. The quality of the used DVD was like that of a brand new DVD. I highly recommended this companys used products since they must be very well taken care of. The DVD played perfectly in the DVD player. There was not any skipping or pauses (which would indicate scratching). This company processes and ships quickly and their used products arrive as if they were brand new. I highly recommend ordering from this company since the quality was brillant!

A movie all about love of family in an unsettled time. Funny and absolutely correct, with outstanding characters.

So good!
