MORE ABOUT 'AVALON'
"If I knew things would no longer be, I would have tried to remember better." Avalon follows the Krichinsky family, Polish-Jewish immigrants who settle in Baltimore in the early 20th century. Sam Krichinsky (Armin Mueller-Stahl) arrives in America on the Fourth of July, joining his brothers to build a new life. As the years pass, his grandson Jules Kaye (Aidan Quinn) and Jules' wife Ann (Elizabeth Perkins) navigate the changing landscape of post-war America, watching as television transforms family dynamics and suburban life pulls the once-close clan apart. Through three generations, the film beautifully captures the immigrant experience and the bittersweet passage of time.
Written and directed by Barry Levinson, and starring Armin Mueller-Stahl, Aidan Quinn, Elizabeth Perkins, Joan Plowright, and Kevin Pollak, 'Avalon' is a deeply moving family saga that earned Oscar nominations for its screenplay, cinematography, costume design, and musical score. Experience this beautiful portrait of American family life and test your knowledge of Barry Levinson's Baltimore films, immigrant stories, and more with our incredibly fun free online trivia game!
