How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A warm, music-filled portrait of chaotic family life in 1970s Brooklyn that balances the humor and messiness of raising kids against genuine tenderness and the soundtrack of jazz that threads through everything. It's the feeling of remembering childhood, both its small joys and its real struggles, with affection rather than judgment.
