Living North of East Broadway and LOVING this movie!, 1 May 2006
10/10
Author: ElkeNYC from United States

I just come out of a screening of the movie shown during the Tribeca Film Fest and I've had the chance to tell the director directly how I felt about her movie: I want to thank you for making such a wonderful movie. I am a fan of romantic comedies, so I am watching many of it and I haven't seen a movie in years that I enjoyed that much. Such a big pleasure, every single minute of it! I think the screenplay is great, the actors - the director plays the female lead herself - are terrific and the dialog is very believable. The view we get from New York is way more real than in many other New York movies. This is a New Yorker's view and not Hollywood and yet, the film never feels "indie" or "small". It's also never insignificant but important in the topics like immigration, sweat shops, unionized labor, etc. that it touches.

I laughed at many times during the movie and I also cried a bit - it's quite touching without being sentimental. I'd like to recommend East Broadway to everybody who's in for a special treat. I am wishing the director and her crew all the best - hopefully they'll find a distributor soon! 10 out 10 points!
