    Editorial Reviews

    Co-writer director Martin Davidson, who previously made a name for himself in rock-fuelled features such as The Lords of Flatbush (1974) and Eddie and the Cruisers (1983), creates this wistful melodrama about a middle-aged widower looking back with tinges of regret at his abandoned musical career. Armand Assante stars as Vince, a former neighborhood idol and lead singer in his moderately successful doo-wop band. But instead of pursuing stardom, he married and got a job as a bartender in order to support his three kids; his eldest son is a cop with a family of his own, his middle child is a 20-something trying to start out with his band, and his youngest, Tina, spends her days in and out of hospitals suffering from leukemia. Though Vince has not dated since his wife died of cancer, he finds himself attracted to motor mouth nurse Joanne (Diane Venora). Later, Vince and his old friends from his defunct group visit the glitz and glamour of Atlantic City and reminisce about old times. Looking for an Echo was screened at the 1999 Mill Valley Film Festival. Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide

    September 27, 2003: This movie was great. Acting was very real and touching. If you love Doo Wop music, you'll love this movie. You laugh, cry and feel good after seeing this. Armand Assante is just AWESOME!

    September 18, 2003: Movie was touching, funny, dramatic and the music is awesome. Armand Assante does a fabulous job of acting. Not a very good job of lip synching. Characters are great and movie just keeps your attention from beginning to end. The Doo Wop music was excellent especially ''This I swear''. The movie is so beleivable and one of my favorites!
