Yiddish New York 2022 Film Festival
Monday, Dec 26: Panel discussion of "Uncle Moses" 2:45pm-4pm online
Film historian (our bandleader) Eve Sicular joins scholar David Mazower, great-grandson of author Sholom Asch whose novel was the basis of this screenplay for Q&A about the 1932 masterpiece early talkie "Uncle Moses," featuring stage legend Maurice Schwartz in the title role as a sweatshop owner who brings shtetl landslayt to his 'promised land' of the Lower East Side. Among its many highlights, this sophisticated feature includes a live klezmer band in its tenement wedding scene.
The film may be screened on demand between Friday 12/23 and Thursday 12/29 at Yiddish Film Festival NY
