Crossing Delancey

"A funny movie about getting serious."

Sep 16 1988 PG 1h 37m
Comedy, Romance

Thirty-something Isabelle spends her time going from her tiny, solitary West Side apartment to that of her grandmother on the Lower East Side. While her grandmother plots to find her a romantic match, Isabelle is courted by a married, worldly author, Anton, yet can't seem to shake the down-to-earth appeal of Sam, a pickle vendor.

Plot

Isabelle's life revolves around the New York bookshop where she works 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 along Isabelle's love life. Enter pickler Sam, who immediately takes to Isabelle. She, however, is irritated by the whole business--at first.
