'Crossing Delancey' at theater

The movie Crossing Delancey will be playing at the Gay Street Theatre on Saturday and Sunday, April 1 and 2 at 7:30 p.m. each evening. The movie stars Amy Irving and Sylvia Miles. Director Joan Micklin Silver, who made Hester Street, has gone back to the old neighborhood a hundred years later. The heroine is Isabelle Grossman, called Izzy (Irving), a nice girl who works in an uptown bookstore and dreams of cultural glory (in Anton, a best-selling phony). Izzy’s grandmother, Bubbie (Yiddish-theater legend Reizl Bozyk) lives downtown near Delancey Street, a world that Izzy thinks she doesn’t belong to anymore. But Bubbie hires a matchmaker (Miles) to find Izzy a nice Jewish boy — Sam, the pickle man, who Izzy rejects. The switch is that Sam turns out to have more poetry in his pickles than Anton has in his pretentious, Confucius-quoting soul. The movie is rated PG. Admission is $3 for adults and $2 for children.
