The director shows promise and was perhaps aspiring to pay homage to famed director Ingmar Bergman, the master of on-camera alienation. Yet, this movie just presents a series of forced situations with awkward dialogue, long-running shots of melancholy faces and people putting their jackets on and off. Watch "Shtisel" and "One of Us" if you want to get much better views of life among and apart from this culture.

In a community were even looking the opposite gender in the eyes is forbidden, you just need a gaze is a daring thing to do. Loved the acting and the feelings in it, and what helped a lot the delivery, was the choice of very good songs in very strategic moments. In other words, this is indeed kosher. See more Jun 3, 2016 The longest 5 minutes I have spent in a movie theatre. Fortunately, I had brought my iPad. "I'm going to sit in the lobby and read my book," I whispered to my wife. We were at a local Jewish Film Festival and I knew she would stay to the bitter end. After all, she's a woman. Jerry Seinfeld did a routine about this phenomenon; men will switch from one TV channel to another, every five seconds, while their wife will sit and watch a test pattern for an hour. "Maybe it will get better," they argue. Movies don't get better, they get worse. A moviemaker works like hell to make the opening scene as intriguing as possible to "hook" the viewer. Just like the first chapter in a novel. So the director of this turkey had the Chasidic shlemiel whose wife would soon dump him for the first non-Chasidic shlemiel who hit on her fill his wine cup so full that it spilled all over his fingers. After all, he had only been pouring wine into the same cup every Sabbath Eve for about ten or twenty years so he obviously hadn't mastered the task. Because all ultra-Orthodox Jews are uncoordinated morons. When the movie was over I met my wife and a few other women who were walking out of the theatre. "Well, that was hard work," one of them said. So do you think she'll walk out of the next p.o.s. she's been conned into attending because some brain-dead "film buffs" (who think watching paint dry is what "art" is all about) have given it some cockamamy "prize" before it's over? Not a chance! See more Read all reviews
