  • Summary: Jenny is stunned to see Lucy on her doorstep and, what's worse, unable to keep her out. Jenny has little time to explain her sister's arrival to her fiancé Bill (who has never met Lucy or anyone in Jenny's family). Lucy tries to update Jenny about their old friends in The Bronx and about thheir estranged mother but when the news is not what Jenny expects to hear, she's left wondering just what else Lucy could possibly do to disrupt her ordered life...that is, until Lucy delivers even more surprises.

    It is intended for an audience that is willing to take a journey without knowing the destination.

    Despite its problems, there's a touching sweetness at the heart of Nancy Savoca's intimate family drama about estranged sisters trying to reconnect.

    Union Square has the busy, hemmed-in talkiness of a theater piece, with too much forced to happen in too short a time. But it also has a lively, nervous energy and an expansive sympathy for the mismatched women at its heart.

    Sorvino brings a spark, but neither she nor Patti LuPone, in an amusing cameo, can overcome the clockwork-like plod to the end.

    Terrific. Funny/sad, excellent film making. . . Nancy Savoca (TRUE LOVE, HOUSEHOLD SAINTS, DOGFIGHT) blends her writing and directing skills with the stellar acting talent of Oscar-Winner Mira Sorvino, Emmy-Winner Tammy Blanchard, Michael Doyle and THE SOPRANOS' Michael Rispoli and Patti LuPone (three-time Tony Award winner) in this intimate movie. Two seemingly opposite sisters try to find some common ground amidst family pain that has scarred them both. This is a film of "big moments" in which you can feel the passion, love and pain of the well-drawn characters. A joy to watch.… Expand
