Genre: Comedy, Biography, Coming Of Age
Plot: Based loosely on playwright/screenwriter Neil Simon's own life, "Brighton Beach Memoirs" focuses on aspiring writer Eugene Jerome and his large Jewish family in their overcrowded Brooklyn home in 1937. His parents work and worry and meddle into everyone else's lives -- and they can always find enough to keep them in a tizzy: Eugene, as far as everyone is concerned, has recently become a bit too fascinated by the fairer sex, with much of his attention fixated on his dishy cousin, a would-be Broadway dancer. His older brother works at a blue-collar job and has run up a big gambling debt. And his widowed aunt (much to Mrs. Jerome's consternation) is considering a romance with the Irishman across the street.
