Slums of Beverly Hills
1998
***
Director: Tamara Jenkins
Cast: Natasha Lyonne, Alan Arkin, Marisa Tomei, Kevin Corrigan
A rather enjoyable rites of passage story about a teenage girl whose dysfunctional and chronically poor Jewish family never stays in one place for very long. The film has some clichéd turns but, all in all, this is a heartfelt story.
