Big Night
1996
***
Director: Stanley Tucci, Campbell Scott
Cast: Stanley Tucci, Isabella Rosselini, Minnie Driver, Tony Shalhoub
Two Italian American brothers struggle to keep their restaurant afloat in the 1950s. However, they hope that a potential visit from the famous singer Louis Prima will restore their fortunes. This is a charming and mouthwatering but a bit underwhelming drama about brotherly love and the Italian kitchen. A pinch more humour and it could've been buono. Directorial debut for Stanley Tucci and Campbell Scott.
