Review of Ragtime (1981) by Madeline S — 27 Nov 2006
The huge cast includes a glimpse of Fran Drescher pre-nanny. For those of you who haven't read the book, it weaves three families, one black, one upper-middle-class white, and one immigrant Jewish, into stories with real people such as Henry Ford and Emma Goldman.
The book is more complex and the musical more fun, but the movie is also a good incarnation of the story.
