A sweet tempered urban love story, Crossing Delancey argues that true love may be in the first place you look. Amy Irving is a single Jewish woman working at an upscale bookstore on the Upper West Side of New York. As much as she longs to be a part of the intellectual literary scene, she is tethered to her roots on the Lower East Side, where her old-fashioned grandmother is forever trying to fix her up. Irving has her eye on a handsome brooding author, but her grandmother enlists the help of a local matchmaker to fix her up with Peter Riegert, a quiet Jewish man who runs a pickle stand in the neighborhood. Soon she must decide what it is she really wants out of life and what love really means to her. Though a very traditional love story, Crossing Delancey has its moments of soul searching drama and an unlikely romance. --Robert Lane

Isabelle's life revolves around the New York bookshop she works in and the intellectual friends of both sexes she meets there. Her grandmother remains less than impressed and decides to hire a good old-fashioned Jewish matchmaker to help Isabelle's love-life along. Enter pickle-maker Sam who immediately takes to Isabelle. She however is irritated by the whole business, at least to start with. This movie is, set partly in an old, traditional Jewish neighborhood in Manhattan. Irving, charming, sails right through her role with absolute believability. The rest of the cast is just perfect, including an early role for David Hyde Pierce. The pace and "feel" of this movie is perfect.

The quality of the DVD is excellent, as was the price. I have always loved this movie, and marvel on how the casting types got it so right...A sweet, romantic, lovely film, so removed from the profane laden, violent, and nudity of the products currently favored by Hollywood. "Box Office" for the most part, is the name of the game. So sad! I have watched this movie many times, and it is rarely on TV now, so decided that I wanted to be able to enjoy whenever the mood hit. A feel good movie, for sure. Two of my friends have already borrowed it. I was pleasantly surprised to find it on Amazon, and it arrived within a few days. I now live in New Mexico (what?) but am a native New Yorker and love to see films that were set in NYC. Takes me back to when I walked those streets. :) Wonderful on all levels...Amazon "rocks"!

I ordered this movie because I remembered it being such a feel-good, nice story movie. And it still is. It is an older one so the clothing is a little outdated, but still an enjoy able movie.

A modern day love story to be sure. You've got to love the Bubby, the matchmaker and the nice pickle man. Nice guys do finish last when women finally realize that they deserve somebody nice...

A love story that transcends time. I fell in love myself - with all the characters. Being originally from Long Island, I can recall the Jewish humor and laughed out loud. I was so caught up in the movie, the time passed way too quickly. When it ended, I actually heard myself say "oh no, not yet". It left me wanting to know more, watch the ralationships grow.
