Begin to understand why old people like to talk about the past. When the places related to the ups and downs of their lives and the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys are forgotten and disappeared by the times, only by repeating them over and over can they prove that they have existed and reproduced. The significance is also here. But is it really that important to prove that you existed? If we are impatient to listen to the older generations talking about old things over and over again, the...

Meet on a narrow road in my own time, and then grow old
We, calm and stubborn, meet the narrow road of our own time. But I want to be nostalgic for the sound of the night clock, grandma's thoughts all day long, and run counter to the fashion of young people and the freedom of modern times.

Sam Krichinsky: I came to America in 1914 - by way of Philadelphia. That's where I got off the boat. And then I came to Baltimore. It was the most beautiful place you ever seen in your life. There were lights everywhere! What lights they had! It was a celebration of lights! I thought they were for me, Sam, who was in America. Sam was in America! I didn't know what holiday it was, but there were lights. And I walked under them. The sky exploded, people cheered, there were fireworks! What a welcome it was, what a welcome!

Sam Krichinsky: Who's this? Who's this Jules Kaye?
Jules Kaye: That's me, Dad. I changed my name.
Izzy Kirk: Me too, I changed mine to Kirk. It's easier to say that Krichinsky. Kirk, it's better.
Sam Krichinsky: Who said names are supposed to be easy to say? What are you, a candy bar? You got a name! Krichinsky! It's a name! Kaye. Kirk. Two cousins, different names. How can this be? How can this be a family? When the father's called Sam Krichinsky, his son is called Jules Kaye and his first cousin is called Izzy Kirk. This is a family, God damn it! Krichinsky is the name of the family!
