apost2468 I saw this amazing film in Chicago and I ABSOLUTELY ADORED IT! I even dragged my mom to see it and, to be honest, I think she loved it even more than I did!!! There were laughs and tears coming from both my mom's and my face. Not only was the story touching, but the actors were phenomenal. The actors brought so much love, sadness, and joyful moments in their characters. I did not once think, "Damn, this actor needs better training!" On the way home we called my dad and told him how awesomely funny and powerful Putzel was! If you haven't had a chance to see this film, DO IT! You're life will be changed.....and I'm not joking....I'm a tough critic when it comes to films and acting performances. IT'S FANTASTIC!

alxndr-628-304412 We previewed this film at the Cinema Society of San Diego, and what a delightful evening it was. The movie was tender, funny, adorable and elicited laughter and embraces from the audience. Each role was played out with understated, well-cast characters who delivered believable performances, making the entire movie feel like home.Our guest speaker, Allegra Cohen, who played the part of Willa, and produced the movie, brought it all to life with her own energy and enthusiasm to the members' questions and comments.Though the story is age-old (boy meets girl, unrequited love unfolds, and the end turns out okay), it's the characters, setting and acting that make it so tender and touching.You'll want to catch this flick on your film festival circuit, and hopefully, when it's out in theaters and on Netflix! Enjoy, it's a little bouquet of pleasantly-scented flowers that we can all appreciate!

ffym A wonderful light but not silly film. Terrific acting, especially from Melanie Lynskey. Pankow is incredible there too. Stepehn Park deserves an award there, he knows how to play subtly, delicately, yet funny. Music is great, story sticks together, some jokes stay with you long after, very funny, witty, sweet, smart. Go and see it, you will have a great time! Very Jewish, very clever, impeccable little film made on small budget with a huge professed love for New York city, which I love dearly. Even supporting actors are great, like the actor who plays the bar tender. I think I will never forget his face and his eyes, Jarlath Conroy. Allegra Cohen, the producer, plays in this film and is stunningly beautiful but knows how to be discrete. Fantastic. Thank you, Allegra Cohen!

Dan B. Putzel is a film which demonstrates that with love and the right amount of courage, you can break free from your metaphorically familial and mental shackles to reveal the person you are truly meant to be.Through the keen directorial skill of Jason Chaet paired with Rick Moore's quirky, sensitive and a tiny bit raunchy writing, you find yourself deeply engrossed in a love story that is rarely seen nowadays. It is a tale with true heart and soul acted beautifully by the likes of Jack Carpenter, Melanie Lynskey, John Pankow and Susie Essman. And to top it all off, it is set in the historic and world renowned Upper West Side of Manhattan! What you find in the end is that there is a little bit of Putzel in all of us. We have our faults and our strengths and this film helps you decipher between the two. So get together with some friends and family, have a nosh and go see Putzel. You'll be glad you did!
