Movie Haiku:Upstairs/Downstairs @ an ultra trendy Manhattan restaurant where Dad (Aiello) rules the Dining Room with a velvet glove while son Udo rules the staff with an iron fist. Huge ensemble cast (mobsters! food critics! cantankerous customers!) with each role perfectly clear & individuated. A banquet for eye, ear, & mind.
