Product Description:
A contemporary New York comedy about Isabella 'Izzy' Grossman a single independent woman who is caught in a romantic quandary when her grandmother hires a Jewish matchmaker to find her a husband.Running Time: 97 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 085391107422 Manufacturer No: 110742

Amazon.com:
A sweet tempered urban love story, Crossing Delancey argues that true love may be in the first place you look. Amy Irving is a single Jewish woman working at an upscale bookstore on the Upper West Side of New York. As much as she longs to be a part of the intellectual literary scene, she is tethered to her roots on the Lower East Side, where her old-fashioned grandmother is forever trying to fix her up. Irving has her eye on a handsome brooding author, but her grandmother enlists the help of a local matchmaker to fix her up with Peter Riegert, a quiet Jewish man who runs a pickle stand in the neighborhood. Soon she must decide what it is she really wants out of life and what love really means to her. Though a very traditional love story, Crossing Delancey has its moments of soul searching drama and an unlikely romance. --Robert Lane

- I love this movie!
This is one of a handful of movies I've watched more than once. The two main reasons for this are probably that Izzy works in a bookstore, and Peter Reigert. The first time I watched it, I wanted to be Izzy--but a much better, smarter Izzy, who made much better choices about men (unlike the real me, who made choices like Izzy, of course). The characters and the New York atmosphere is great. Wardrobe, very '80s, but a lovely romance, just the same.If you are a fellow lover of bookstores or books, please check out my blog at today.com (allthepage).

- Charming
A charming, unpretentious little gem, which is even better if you know New York City. Don't expect the comedic heights of classics like Bringing Up Baby or Adam's Rib, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Fun soundtrack. Just enjoy.

- What the world needs now.............
This movie has aged very well. It satisfies the uncynical need in most us to believe that love and romance can exist in every life-even that of a pickle man. Good character, true feeling, and commitment are rewarded as Sam (Peter Riegert) wins the love of Isabella (Amy Irving) with the help of Bubbie. Enjoy!!

- A movie well worth watching
I love this movie for many reasons, but what I took away from it most of all was the dignity of the character played by Peter Riegert. He doesn't ask to be approved of, he knows his worth, and walks proudly through his simple and unprovocative life. He shows the character of Izzy what really matters in life in a quiet and utterly charming way, and in the end he is the source of strength that every woman would love to find in a man. Peter Riegert is a very fine actor who has made some wonderful films, and his portrayal of Sam in this film is as good a job of acting as one could ask for. While not a real fan of Amy Irving, she does a good job, and the other actors are very enjoyable. But the story line carries the film as much as the acting, it is just a good love story about real people with real life joys and heartaches, and it's thoroughly enjoyable. One of the few movies in my archives that I have never tired ... Read More
