Those Were the Days-Zoom Presentation

Please join us on Zoom on Thursday, February 22 at 7:30 pm, as we travel down memory lane with hosts Irv Sliftkin and Laurence Lerman.

From Barry Levinson’s Diner, Tin Men and Avalon and Woody Allen’s Radio Days and Bullets Over Broadway to the much beloved My Favorite Year, The Chosen, Brighton Beach Memoirs and An American Tail, we present a collection of nostalgic Jewish films that affectionately look back on the ‘good old days of yester year’.

We also discuss their roots in the time-honored tradition of Jewish storytellers like Sholom Aleichem, Chaim Potok, Philip Roth, Michael Chabon, Cathleen Schine and others, and then give some attention to such sentimental TV shows as Brooklyn Bridge, The Goldbergs and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. 

To RSVP and receive the Zoom link (sent out closer to February 22) please contact Beth Nelson at Beth@HCRJ.org or call Beth at 713-782-4162.
