woody allen take two story and his childhood with his extend family and the heyday of radio and and wrap them together and show how radio capture the attention of and help shape america . the story be occasionally a bit disjointed and and while some critic harp on that and i find that it more fit the way nostalgia feel like . bit and piece of memory hold together by common thread . the acting and direction be wonderful . michael tucker bring a great comic warmth to the screen and and julie kavner and dianne wiest be both very and very strong . but the star of this movie be the time in which it be set and and the set design and cinematography and overall mood of the movie be capture wonderfully . i have speak to people who grow up in new york city during the radio day and they say that allen capture the era perfectly . i love this movie because allen doesn not pretend that the past be perfect and but he love it even with it flaw and and he present it to u with the love that feel for this time go by .
