Featuring a post-film Q&A with director Nancy Savoca and screenwriter Richard Guay
Nancy Savoca's
star-studded indie gem is a chronicle of a spirited Italian-American New York family that perfectly balances humor, tragedy, and pathos. Joseph Santangelo (
Vincent D'Onofrio
) is a butcher with a wicked sense of humor who "wins" his wife Catherine (a stellar
Tracey Ullman
) in a pinochle game. Over the protests of his mother (
Judith Malina
) who talks to ghosts and makes deals with saints, Joseph marries Catherine. When the old lady dies, her spirit is channeled into her granddaughter Teresa who overtakes the film with her yearning to serve God.
