This drama, largely based on the family history of director Barry
Levinson, follows the immigrant Krichinsky clan as they settle in Baltimore
during the early 20th century. While Sam Krichinsky establishes roots in the
city and finds a wife, his ambitious son, Jules, who changes his last name
to Kaye, tries to live the American Dream by opening an appliance store,
revealing cultural and generational gaps. Avalon received Academy Award
nominations for Best Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen, Best
Music, Original Score, Best Cinematography, and Best Costume Design.
Levinson’s script won the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Original
Screenplay. It was also nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Picture.
