A vignette-packed memory piece about growing up in Brooklyn in the 1940s, obsessed with the music, entertainment, and news of the wide world brought into every household via the magic of radio. A young Allen surrogate lives with his parents and extended family in the wind-swept Rockaway neighborhood, their daily routines spiced by the glamor, excitement, thrills and even occasional doses of grim reality coming to them over the airwaves. (Sandpiper Pictures)
