Not Perfect but a great try Jan 16 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:VHS Tape
While the production value of this film is questionable, the writting is very solid. It tells a difficult story about difficult issues and treats these issues pretty well. Considering that this is the director's first try he had done a very good job. I have to question the review about this film needing a shower and a change of clothes, I can not imagine that this person actually watched the film.

great story, spotty production Oct 19 2002
By chris jennings - Published on Amazon.com
Format:VHS Tape
This beautifully written story has some problems due to it's ultra low budget. The camera work is not very good, some of the acting is spotty. But former porn queen Georgina Spelvin, the two male leads and the girl who plays the Rabbi's daughter are superb. Some may find this hard to sit thru due to the camerawork, but the story and script are so well executed, that this is forgivable. I believe the director also wrote this. I'd like to see what he can do with a real budget, and a real crew.

A very special, unique tale of learning to be yourself. May 5 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:VHS Tape
There is perhaps no other film like this: a completely honest and unpretentious look at what it means to be at odds with your own identity. Almost documentary-like in its simple cinemagraphic style and highlighted and underlined by post-modern singer-songwriter Richard Barone's brilliant score, "Next Year in Jerusalem" succeeds because the focus never leavesthe plight of the two protagonists: one closeted because of his gayness, but open about his Jewishness, the other comfortable with his sexuality, but a closeted Jew. A film in which compassion wins out
