Had the pleasure of watching “The Family Recipe” at the Big Apple Film Festival. It was a nostalgic family film, dealing with family gatherings, growing up and coming to terms with change. Had a very 90’s film to the storytelling. Reminder of light hearted comedy’s that I watched growing up. The cast did a good job playing off each other and were very in sync with one another, felt like watching a family gathering rather than watching a film. Had a lot of funny moments that anyone who has been to a family gathering can connect with. It was very enjoyable and a film that we need more of.
