Kuni Lemel in Tel Aviv (1977)
Synopsis of Kuni Lemel in Tel Aviv
Kuni Lemel is the legendary "schlemiel" hero of Jewish shtetl fables. In this film, we meet the octogenarian Kuni in present-day Brooklyn. Our hero wants his grandsons to marry Jewish girls and return to Israel. To make certain that they'll acquiesce, he offers the boys a million dollars each. Will they be able to collect without sacrificing their own plans? The supporting cast includes Mandy Rice-Davies, whose 15 minutes of fame came about through her involvement in the British Profumo sex scandal of 1963. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
