Review of Crossing Over (1983) by Lucas Z — 10 Jun 2012
Crossing over tackles the various issues if immigration through the lens of several different individuals and their families. The movie jumps head first into a subject matter that is quite touchy and from the looks of reviews on here, its a subject that many people don't want to address.
Don't confuse dislike of the subject material with the movies quality. The movie itself is well acted and is worth watching, but it does struggle in a one key area. There is not have enough time to tie all of the separate stories together; limiting itself to 2 or 3 at most would have been sufficient and enabled the film makers to delve more deeply into each one.
Instead we are left wanting more time and less ambiguity.
