UK Jewish Film 5 to 7
Sun 11 September 2016
5-7 (2014)
A wonderfully stylish romantic comedy from Manhattan with stand-out performances as the Jewish mother from hell from six-time Academy award-winner Glenn Close and her hilarious on-screen husband, Frank Langella.
Their son, Brian Bloom, is a struggling young writer faced with a mountain of rejection letters when he meets by chance the impossibly gorgeous, but firmly married, Arielle. Following the French custom of holding romantic liaisons between the hours of 5-7pm only, so begins a funny and sweet relationship that takes unexpected directions. A brilliantly life-affirming story with fantastic joie de vivre.
