Synopsis
Growing up in the Bronx, there was instilled in Norman Brodsky a sense of humor, which has allowed him to wryly narrate his life observations and experiences. His comical slant on everyday occurrences can be hysterical. He has a way of telling a story that invokes nostalgia for a long bygone Bronx. Subsequent college experiences and the zany things that happened at work, all give him an opportunity to offer his insights and to shine a spotlight on whatever was funny or interesting. In telling the anecdotes of events he remembers so well, we gain insight into the sum of his life. He especially delights in revealing the humiliating things that he has endured. This is the essence of the self-deprecating humor which reveals the human being that dwells in him. Here at the age of seventy, Brodsky looks back and relates the amusing things that define his humor. His was an interesting life observing the foibles of his time. In all, the totality of his life is assembled here in such a way that we feel that we know him.
