Dan Grimaldi

Make yourself at home with the Carmichael family as they experience one very special summer in their Brooklyn neighborhood that they've affectionately nicknamed "Crooklyn". Renowned director Spike Lee fashions a bold, flavorful picture of family life that People Magazine calls his "most affectionate work." Academy Award® nominee Alfre Woodard stars as Carolyn, a loving, but fiercely independent mother who along with her musician husband (Delroy Lindo) struggles to raise her family in difficult but often wonderful circumstances. Complemented by an energizing, vintage R&B soundtrack, this tender, colorful film is a fitting tribute to an American family.

Fed up with his seemingly neglectful parents, child prodigy North sets off across the globe to find a new and improved mom and dad. But the lad's crazy adventures with potential replacement families show him that there's no place like home.

Mike Battaglia (John Turturro) has saved the D'Amico family empire. He's gunned down one of the leaders of an uprising against his padrino and protected the family's standing in the New York underworld. Now the simple soldier has been lifted from the ranks. For his loyalty and courage, the padrino (Rod Steiger) has decreed that Mike is to be treated as a man of respect. Ruthie Battaglia (Katherine Borowitz), however, has greater ambitions for her husband, and goads him onto a course of action that leads to a frenzy of betrayal, murder and madness in this modern-day Macbeth. Costarring are Dennis Farina (Get Shorty), Emmy winner Peter Boyle (Everybody Loves Raymond, Monster s Ball), Emmy and Golden Globe winner Stanley Tucci (Winchell, Big Night) and Academy Award® nominee Lilia Skala (Lilies Of The Field).
