Trouble is, he understands neither its meaning nor the Hebrew, and his parents (particularly his successful-agent father) are planning the most lavish party possible. Benjamin wants his dad to give him some space, so he gets an idea: to invite his grandfather, who left the family years ago and for whom Benjamin’s dad has an intense dislike, to come two weeks early. Thanks in part to Grandpa, and to the immediate family’s love, Benjamin may have a shot at figuring out what it means to be a man. Miramax, 2006, 90 min.

Crystal City Entertainment, 2012, 87 min. July 13 Fiddler On The Roof At the beginning of the 20th Century, there is a little village of Anatevka in the prerevolutionary Russia of the Czars. It is a tradition in the community that the matchmaker arranges the marriage and the father approves it. The milkman, Tevye (Topol), is a poor man, married twenty-five years to Golde (Norma Crane) and they have five daughters. Tevye attempts to maintain his family and Jewish traditions while outside influences encroach upon their lives. He must cope with both the strong-willed actions of his three oldest daughters (as each one’s choice of husband moves her farther away from the customs of his faith) and with the edict of the Czar, that evicts the Jews from their village. MGM, 1971, 181 min.
