Description
"One of the most enchanting romantic comedies of all time assembles a flawless ensemble cast for a tender and boisterously funny look at a multigenerational Italian American family in Brooklyn, wrestling with the complexities of love and marriage at every stage of life. At the center of it all [is] Loretta, an unlucky-in-love bookkeeper whose feelings about her engagement to the staid Johnny are thrown into question after she meets his hot-blooded brother, Ronny, and one night at the opera changes everything"--Container.
