Household Saints

On the list of The New York Times’s best films of all time, Household Saints follows the challenges faced by three generations of Italian-American women in Little Italy, New York, following the Second World War. Both humorous and tragic, with Tracy Ullman, Vincent D’Onofrio and Lili Taylor on the cast, this is a family drama about faith, love and heritage — a captivating reflection on the search for the divine in the mundane and in human imperfections. The version we screen is a digital restoration developed by Lightbox Film Center (Philadelphia) in collaboration with Milestone Films, with support from Ron and Suzanne Naples.
