An enchanting romantic comedy that brought together a flawless ensemble cast for a tender and boisterously funny look at a multigenerational Italian American family in Brooklyn, wrestling with the complexities of love and marriage at every stage of life. At the center of it all is Loretta, an unlucky-in-love bookkeeper whose feelings about her engagement to the staid Johnny are thrown into question after she meets his hot-blooded brother, Ronny, and one night at the opera changes everything.
