“Dretzin’s ability to chant ritual Hebrew blessings speaks well of her vocal talents, as does her faultless execution of conversations that Ben has with Sarah’s parents. Through her narration, Dretzin brings new layers of meaning to the term culture clash as the elders reel in the wake of Sarah’s romance.”
