An American Pickle: Review

An American Pickle is a portrait of Jewish experience in the New World and a rags-to-riches story of immigration.

The outlandish plot is part of it and it is able to get over itself perfectly and tell a beautiful and hilarious story about family, religion, forgiveness and the climate of America.

Sweet and earnest when it could be condescending, with an edge to the generational conflict at its center.
