Life is one "Oy" after another. Tsures (trouble) is not unique to the Jews. I have met everyone of those characters in my life, including the wife of a friend who would stab you in the heart to prove a point. Bad things do happen to good people. The point being, we rise above it and push on. Wonderfully dark and an accurate portrayal of the '60's, that is really every decade and a harbinger of the self-indulgence and entitlement years to come. The meaning of life is never answered. You don't have to be Jewish to recognize that truth. Bravo.
