This version is an all time fav. The Fleetwoods' original was very good, but this version is sublime. And it also perfectly dovetails into the movie.

Peter Riegert is wonderful in his role in the movie (and I have to confess in Animal House too).

Great small time/big heart movie. I often wonder what "Crossing Delancey Part II" would be like!
