Here is a brilliant, touching, funny, poignant marvel of a movie! The characters are real, complex and imperfect. The acting is flawless. The delightful couple in the movie are married in real life and their love for each other shows. Those of us who are not Orthodox Jews will have a little difficulty with it. I was very unfamiliar with so many of their customs and rituals(and found some of them a bit strange)But... the universal messages of love, doubt and faith will come through. I have deliberately not said anything about the plot, and I recommend that those of you interested in watching, please do NOT read any reviews. It is so much better to have this story unfold before you with all its complexity and charm.
Happy, happy viewing my friends!!
