HESTER STREET
starstarstarstar
An engagingly simple first feature written and directed by Joan Micklin Silver. Carol Kane plays a young turn-of-the-century Jewish immigrant who joins her Americanized husband in New York City, but finds him embarrassed by her Old World ways. It's an atmospheric illumination of a neglected piece of history, and Kane's fine performance earned her an Oscar nomination. Read the complete review for Hester Street
