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.

This is an absolutely wonderful movie. Very very funny. All the actors in it are great. I have watched this movie. At least seven times over the years since I first discovered it. And I’m sure I’ll be watching it again.

The movie was in good condition as stated and arrived in a timely manner and was a gift for my mother who specifically requested this movie in a DVD so it was a win win!

I would actually give it 6 stars, if that were possible, because, its that good.

Life is definitely never dull with seven people living under the same roof Have enjoyed this movie for years watching it on TV whenever it was on... but has not been on TV for a long time now so was time to buy the DVD. Found no problems with the DVD at all, good quality for older film redone in Anamorphic Widescreen to fill the widescreen TV nicely without zooming in

This is a great coming to age movie for guys. Very funny, you have to watch it!

one of my favorite and easy go-to movies...just for fun, get it for your collection

I have watched this over and over ... fantastic.

One of my fav movies!

Love this movie! The first movie in the set of Neil Simon movies, sometimes called the Eugene Series, this is the best one. Eugene Jerome is such a funny kid! All the characters in this movie are fabulous and memorable. I can watch this over and over! I must say that even though Matthew Broderick plays Eugene in Biloxi Blues (2nd in series), and he is a bigger star, Jonathan Silverman will always be Eugene Jerome to me!
