“ Perhaps because I have roots traced to the Bronx and Long Island around the same time (plus the fact that it was written so cleanly) , this was a brisk read for me.   It certainly captures a bygone era when Jewish families family scattered to different suburbs (Long island, Westchester and New Jersey), and where they lost some of their cultural and personal connections to their immigrant roots.  This evoked those memories -- plus the memory of when the Baltimore Orioles were scarily good! The play is authentic to its time period where there was a cross between values. ”

“ I had the pleasure of seeing a virtual reading of this play recently, and it takes an intense and thought-provoking look into the ways we self-identify -- and how that self-identification affects our relationships with others. Smartly, sharply and bravely written. ”

“ After having read, seen, and heard many Zoom-related plays, I am quite taken with MOVIE REEL which conveys the mood and spirit of the day in a passionately lean way. It is a play that offers abundant staging possibilities, as it is a play that is open to various interpretations. To me, it would a fascinating showcase to see this play enacted by four different sets of actors/directors to see how they interpret the same material. The play is short, the dialogue clips along -- it would lend itself to this. ”
