Crossing Delancey (1988)

Amy Irving stars as a young New Yorker caught between the culturally upscale world in which she works and her Jewish roots on the Lower East Side. She considers a romance with a cultured author (Jeroen Krabbé) but finds herself oddly drawn to the friendly pickle merchant (Peter Riegert) from her family’s neighborhood. This 35th anniversary screening of director Joan Micklin Silver’s romantic comedy is presented as part of our WB100 celebration.
