This is one of those fabulous movies that you can pop in any time that you want to be entertained. It's touching, it's funny, it is familiar. It is done with a well-known cast of actors that bring meat and potatoes to the story. With Tony Shalhoub and Stanley, how can you go wrong?
Big Night is a charming small film about Italian immigrants in the 1950's setting up a restaurant in New Jersey. The film highlights the immigrant dilemma, do you change your life to become part of the American "melting pot" or do you retain the culture of the "old country." Well written, well acted, and surprising supporting players.
