“Unstrung Heroes,” August 30, 1995, VHS. A very good, funny, sad movie about a very strange family. Based on the book of the same name, it chronicles one real Jewish family in LA through the mother’s cancer, the uncles’ mental problems, the post-McCarthy period of anticommunism, and crazy science. Lots of fun and very good acting by John Tuturro, Michael Richards (Kramer on Seinfeld), and, surprisingly, Andie McDowell as the mother. Diane Keaton does a lovely job of directing this fine, fun film. See it!
