know that jane curtin be one of the original saturday night live cast member might make it hard to imagine that she could star in something as serious a brooklyn lobster and but it come out very good . the movie tell the story of frank giorgio ( danny aiello ) and a seafood merchant whose business fall on hard time and force him and his family to reevaluate their lifestyle and relationship with each other . i think that what make the movie especially effective be the yuletide setting . it remind u that while so many people be merrily eat dinner and opening present and a number of individual possibly more than half of u be struggle just to get by and with or without tragedy striking . a it be and i get the feeling that frank felt pretty disgust with how the surrounding world be celebrate and and that drive him to do some of the angry thing that he do . so and this be certainly a movie that i recommend . see it if possible .
