Crossing Delancey (DVD)

Single, attractive Isabelle (Izzy) Grossman has a rent-controlled uptown apartment and a blooming career in publishing. She also has Bubbie, a tradition-minded grandmother who's hired a matchmaker to find a husband for Izzy. There's already a prospect: the corner pickle seller?!? Amy Irving as Izzy is the radiant center of this witty charmer, and her costars strike comic sparks galore as old-world ways rub against new-world woes. Peter Riegert stars as the pickle man, Jeroen Krabbe as his rival and Sylvia Miles as the matchmaker. A veteran stage performer, 74-year-old Reizl Bozyk is an ideal Bubbie, blithely snapping off one-liners and stealing scenes in a joy of a comedy (Jay Carr, The Boston Globe).
