Movie Info

Sixties doo-wop singer Vince, of Vinnie and the Dreamers fame, gave up his singing career 30 years ago to raise a family in Brooklyn. His wife now dead and his children growing up, Vince is forced to confront his past when his son Anthony starts his own rock 'n' roll band. Adding to his stress, Vince's daughter Tina is hospitalized with leukemia. But Vince may have found a fellow lonely heart when his frequent hospital visits put him in touch with nurse Joanne, another single parent working hard to hold her family together.

All Critics (6) | Top Critics (2)

Looking for an Echo is full of satisfying moments, yet it's not an altogether satisfying movie.

Jul 23, 2002 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

There's a touching sadness to the film, and it reverberates in the splendid, effortless performances.

Film Journal International

The tale of a former doo-wop singer and his friends, is a very appealing mix of pop music, romance, and family drama.
