Summary: A GEM OF A MOVIE
Review: For me, most often it's the movies that are the least advertised that are often the best. I never knew about this movie until it came out in video. Since I am an Al Pacino fan, I decided to rent it - I wasn't disappointed. Even though he's not on screen all that much, he makes the most of the time he does have. It was nice to see him in a rather different role than he usually plays. As I indicated above, a "gem of a movie." Highly recommended!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Movie
Review: I saw this movie on cable recently, and was very much taken with it. I had never seen it before, but I would like to watch it again with my children. The way it simultaneously portrays the perspectives of 3 generations, and their own imperatives, is beautiful. The camera work is wonderful, as is the soundtrack. This film also portrays very compellingly the pressures people were under during the great American depression, which helped me understand my parents much more than these WWII movies everybody is so excited about. I liked those when I was an adolescent though. I will purchase this when it is available on DVD. (I will only purchase VHS in very exceptional circumstances now, DVD being the far superior format.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A GEM OF A MOVIE
Review: Sometimes the very best movies are those you never hear about. I never knew about this movie until it came out on video. A different kind of role for Pacino - low key and though he isn't actually on screen for that long, he's very effective in the role of the young hero's Italian grandfather (He's certainly come full circle from the Godfather movies). EXCELLENT MOVIE - A GEM!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You have not scene this movie, but you will!
Review: This is still one of my favorite Al Pacino movies. Even though
Pacino has small part his role has much impact. I tried to tell
a friend what this movie was about and my eyes started to well up. Coming from a close Italian family, this touched my heart.
This movies supplies us with excellent performances sprinkled with a heartwarming story. Watch this on a Sunday evening you
will be better off that you did
