I watch this movie without fail every thanksgiving even though it could also be a 4th of july movie. It's a bittersweet story of an immigrant family and a larger story of how families in America changed and mealtimes too.

Also the migration of people who moved from the cities to the suburbs.

The acting from everyone is stellar especially the older folks Mueller-Stahl & Dame Plowright. But i'm also a huge fan of Quinn, Pollak, Perkins, and Wood.

This movie is part two of a trilogy by Barry Levinson and naturally filmed in Baltimore. The first being Diner and the third Tinmen, all with different actors.
