Definitely worth watching! - By: L. Perkins, 05 Apr 2005
I rented this film after seeing actor Ben Foster in the film 'Hostage'. I'd never heard of it before but I'm definitely glad I've seen it. Ben Foster & Adrien Brody star as two brothers from a religious Jewish background in the 1950's. They both encounter relationships & normal teenage things whilst growing up in a racist society. This film tackles many issues & does it perfectly in my opinion. Definitely a film to rent if not to buy!
A film by Barry Levison of a last stormy summer following - By: , 28 Apr 2002
the life of a 1950s' jewish high schooler.
This film contains immaculate acting & has those smalll details that makes a film that one bit more than 'good.'
As you follow Ben Kurtman (Ben Foster)narrating his life through a year he begins to challlenge his Jewish roots.As he fallls in love with his schools only black student & finds out about his fathers dodgy business connections.
This film is extremely enjoyable but maybe a little slow.
The only critisism i have is that Barry Levisons take on family life is an aqquired taste.
