Plot: Brighton Beach Memoirs is the first of playwright Neil Simon's unofficial autobiographical trilogy (it was followed by Biloxi Blues and Broadway Bound). Jonathan Silverman repeats his stage role as Simon's teenaged alter-ego Eugene, who lives in 1937 Brooklyn with his parents (Blythe Danner and Bob Dishy), older brother Stanley (Brian Drillinger), aunt (Judith Ivey) and female cousins (Stacey Glick and Lisa Waltz). Much is made of Eugene's burgeoning sexual self-awareness and his father's efforts to support his huge extended family on his meager salary. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

GREAT FOR THE OVER 50 CROWD
Added 6/27/2009

This movie like all Neil Simons is very enjoyable and nostalgic too the over 50 Crowd. This is especially true for those of you who grewup in NYC in the 40's and 50's. Even young audiences will get a chance to see what Gradpa went through.

If you love Neil Simon....you MUST see this one. It's based on his childhood in Brooklyn. Hilarious!

Authenic and humorous experiences of early 20th Century days in America!!
Added 5/29/2008

This movie is authentic in it's depiction of what it was like to live in situations of American's living in crowded cities, with extended families and having European relatives trying to get over here in a time of War and hardship. However, this movie brings such a humorous and poignantly real glimpse into the life of one son, an adolescent boy steeped in the dreams of sexuality, baseball and writing the perfect novel. I love the characters responses to the difficult times of the era, especially the way this boy brings such life and laughter to those viewing the movie. I watch it as often as I can!!
