This is a warm heartful movie that touches one in the memory like Diner did all those years ago. In this movie Levinson returns to his roots, and shows why he should stick to this type of material more often. It may not have the most concrete of plots. Each character has their own storyline which proves interesting and insightful, especially that of Ben and his inter-racial relationship with Sylvia. However, the point of the film is not what the story tells you. It is what you feel at the end of the movie. It is how you are drawn into a time gone past, it is how your memories are evoked by what you see on the screen. A brilliant film with warms the heart. Encore Barry.
