The Last Greeks on Broome Street

Δημοσιεύθηκε από Abravanel στο 01/06/2008

“The Last Greeks on Broome Street” is just a short movie on the small community of Greek Jews called Romaniòtes/ Ρωμανιώτες and a group of them who emigrated in New York from Ioannina/ Jannina at the beginnings of the century. I have already cited them numerous times in my blog and one day I intend on writing a nice piece. In the meantime a film has come out and though I haven’t seen it yet I thought it was worthwhile to bring it up for those interested in this small but important part of Greek Judaism.

For a review in greek you can check this blog post here.

For the site of the movie itself just click here.

    Strange, there are no Greeks in this movie.

  2. Abravanel είπε

    Nor do I see one in you but I don’t think that it’s a problem.

  3. Marios είπε

    I always feel a bit melancholic when I read about the dying Romaniotes..
