Brighton Beach Memoirs

I used to watch this with my mom as a kid. Gave you some insight of what the old days living in to 1900’s was.

Film was excellent. In our senior household we were both extremely disappointed that this version was not closed captioned which resulted in us missing some of the fast moving dialogue. In the future how can we determine if a film we are purchasing is CC before we purchase?

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

One of the best movies I have ever purchased. Jonathan Silverman shines; Judith Ivey is wonderful as his squawking aunt. She is a great actress in any movie she has ever been in ~ and her performance in Brighton Beach Memoirs is outstanding. You can really understand her brother-in-law wanting her out of the house. I never tire of watching this one.

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!

fun watch. Offers a fine perspective without burning my feet to get there.

Love the work of Neil Simon. Saw this movie on cable a couple years back and remembered it so fondly. It is as sweet as I remembered. Have loaned it to friends and they are now in pursuit of Simons work.

Sorry, I have not much more to say. Great Neil Simon play and funny movie. A favorite when I was a teen and my kids enjoyed it too.

having watched the movie more times than i can remember i couldnt wait to read the book. i was not disappointed. watch the movie,read the book, period.

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!
