Radio Days Movie Review 1987

A lovely, unpretentious remembrance of the pre-TV radio culture. Allen tells his story in a series of vignettes centering around his youth in Brooklyn, his eccentric extended family, and the legends of radio they all followed. The ubiquitous Farrow is a young singer hoping to make it big.
