Crossing Delancey
A funny movie about getting serious.
Directed by Joan Micklin Silver
Produced by Warner Bros. Pictures
A warm, playful romantic comedy about a woman learning to value genuine connection over glamorous fantasy, anchored by family matchmaking and New York charm.
Thirty-something Isabelle spends her time going from her tiny, solitary West Side apartment to that of her grandmother on the Lower East Side. While her grandmother plots to find her a romantic match, Isabelle is courted by a married, worldly author, Anton, yet can't seem to shake the down-to-earth appeal of Sam, a pickle vendor.
