Info

In the easy-going, sexually-liberated 1970's Tel Aviv, three young friends, struggling filmmaker Nati, his impressionable girlfriend Ossi and his geeky friend Mushon, move in together in a small apartment in Dizengoff Street number 99. By day, they work a boring desk office job but by night the city is their playground. Their overall goal is to make their way into the commercial movie making business, but harsh realities and romances often sidetrack them. Their fourth friend and Nati's older other girlfriend is aspiring musician, Miri.

99 Dizengoff Street Audience Reviews

JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
xsxso This is a truly awful piece of cinema. Everything about it is absolute embarrassment; we mustn't somehow lower our plot-writing and filming standards just because this is a 1979 film. There were already amazing films being made throughout the world at the time. It is at the same time a natural product of a then up-and coming Israel's cinema industry, and every sovereign state with a film industry has had a film like this. The acting, the illogical plot twists, the dialogue and the filming itself, are all at sub-par levels. Oh, and don't forget the text appearing at the end of the film announcing to us what went on in the lives of the main characters following this exhilarating story of the three of them living under one roof -- the text's translation is grossly inaccurate and is shamelessly misspelled! In short, as a big fan as I am of 'education through cinema', this isn't a film I'd ever show to my kids. If anything, I'd very much stand in the way of them seeing it.
Alex An old Israeli movie (yes 1979 is old in terms of Israeli cinema) featuring an astonishingly beautiful Anat Atzmon, and some of the Israeli cult figures Gidi Gov, Meir Swisa, Gali Atari etc. Tel Aviv of the 70s atmosphere is accompanied by a great soundtrack. Overall the movie is very sincere and emotional still very much relevant for our days, it is very humane and unlike most of the Israeli movies isn't about war, holocaust or a stupid comedy.To conclude, it is highly recommended for all of you to watch, it is the Hohmat Ha Beigale of the 70s.P.S The only problem is that it was filmed on a lousy tape but the quality is tolerable. It also has French subtitles (may be useful for some of you, I could show it to my girlfriend who don't understand Hebrew and she loved it)
Baldy-13 A spaced out hippi, sexy girl and nerd try to produce a successful advertisement in Israel. Notable for nude scene with Israeli singer Gali Atari as one of the many girlfriends of spaced out hippi.
