Product Description:
Billy Crystal and Alan King will keep you in stitches in director Henry Winkler s heartwarming comedy about a feuding father and son who discover that love is a family trait. With a script by Crystal and Oscar® winner* Eric Roth Memories of Me is well written well directed [and] smart and tender (Roger Ebert Siskel & Ebert ). They say like father like son but for Abe (King) and Abbie (Crystal) Polin nothing could be further from the truth. Abe is king of the Hollywood extras. As an actor he s an expert at being a face in the crowd. His son Abbie is a respected New York heart surgeon who s always felt like a bit player in his father s life. When Abbie suffers a mild heart attack he decides it s time to mend family ties...or break them altogether.

What do you get when the 2 wittiest and most intelligent comedians in the world of Jewish humor of the late 20th century not only costar in, but co-produce a movie? Answer: You get a serious comedy (or dramady: part comedy, part drama) that holds your attention for it's entire length. In this MGM gem of 1988 brilliantly directed by Henry (Fonzie) Winkler, Billy Crystal and the late Alan King give probably the best performances of their lives that does just that. Crystal is Abbie Polin MD, probably ... Read More

An artful little film. The plot isn't original -- estranged father and son reconciling in the nick of time -- and has been done before and since (Jack Lemmon, "Tribute", "Dad"; Paul Newman, "Harry and Son"; Jackie Gleason, "Nothing in Common"). But director Henry Winkler keeps "Memories of Me" happy-poignant rather than tragic, and earns big kudoes for keeping the runaway talents of Billy Crystal and Alan King on-track as much as he does. Where the film shines are the incidentals that make life good.

Billy Crystal and Alan King turn in memorable performances as an estranged son and father confronting past hurts, who finally learn to appreciate one another and thus, get on with living -- just in time. As you would expect from such comedic giants, the timing, humor and chemistry are excellent. A poignant film that balances a heavy subject with humor and thoughtful perspective.

Looking for a Dramatic movie that has some laughs in it?? No...they don't do dumb things like bumping eachother over the head with bricks...it's the funny things they say. If you are into good commedy, you'll love this movie. Lines such as "My gosh i'm shrinking....when i die you can burry me in a shoe box" is just an example of the laughs and tears this movie has in store for YOU!

Sorry all, my opinion is jaded as I played a bit part in the film as the TOMATO, yes the tomato. They covered my face with green makeup, my legs with green tights and of course a giant round red tomato suit. Going to the lunchroom (sans the tomato suit) was embarrasing but funny too... Hollywood! Also not that anyone will read this but, Sean Connery was in one scene and off camera he and I were checking out a penny on the ground, I looked at him like "no, you take it" so he did! Said Connery "a ... Read More
